1 United City of Yorkville 50/50 Parkway Tree Program Through the 50/50 Parkway Tree Program, the United City of Yorkville shares the cost of planting trees with homeowners. Residents simply choose the tree they want and send in a check for the cost listed on the order form. The City does the rest! The Parkway Tree Program is intended to provide quality shade trees to residents within the City to be planted within the right-of-ways along the streets and corridors throughout the City. The trees are intended to provide shade, screening, wildlife, pollution control, reduction of water runoff, soil erosion control, increased property values, reduced stress, aesthetics, and a sense of well being within the community. This program is open to all residents within City limits. If you are in a development that has not yet been accepted by the City, the developer may still be responsible for your parkway tree replacement. Please contact the number below if you have questions. All trees purchased through the program are required to be planted within the area of the right-of-way in front of or on the sides of the purchaser's property. The right-of-way area available for planting the trees varies depending on the platting of the property and the width of the right-of-way. Generally it is eight to ten feet (8' to 10') from edge of curb to edge of right-of-way. Trees must be located a minimum distance of 50 feet from any other tree in the parkway; not conflict with existing utilities, be at least 20 feet from an overhead light or fire hydrant, and must be 30 feet from any intersection. Each tree will be a minimum of 2.5 in diameter. The City will work with the homeowner to locate the tree. All trees will be purchased for a fall planting except for oak trees, which will be planted the following spring. The tree will be planted, mulched, and watered (once) by the City. After the watering, care is the responsibility of purchaser. No guarantee of viability will be provided. Please make your check payable to the United City of Yorkville. All orders must be received by Friday September 8, Please mail checks and completed application to: United City of Yorkville Parkway Tree Program 800 Game Farm Road Yorkville, IL, If you have any questions, please contact the Eric Dhuse at (630) or edhuse@yorkville.il.us.
