Arbor Day Foundation names St. Clair Tree City USA

St. Clair MI was named a 2014 Tree City USA by the Arbor Day Foundation in honor of its commitment to effective urban forest management.

St. Clair achieved Tree City USA recognition by meeting the program’s four requirements: a tree board or department, a tree-care ordinance, an annual community forestry budget or at least $2 per capita and an Arbor Day observance and proclamation.

The Tree City USA program is sponsored by the Arbor Day Foundation, in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service and the National Association of State Foresters.
