[MassHistPres] Tree survey

[Jane Guy]

After consulting with the Community Preservation Coalition, attached is a letter that we sent to the City Council in response to their inquiry to use CPA for trees. It does not address a city-wide survey specifically, but does address the maintenance.

Subject: [MassHistPres] Tree survey

A concerned citizen in town has asked the Historical Commission to support a tree survey for specific Oak trees that may be 200 years old including a hemlock that was in a "King's stand" that has been purported to have trees harvested for sailing ships prior to 1776.

The HHC debated whether this work or subsequent tree maintenance work could be eligible for CPA funds. Has anyone done anything similar?
