9 GREEN LAWS DEFINED Nature In The City? Cities to be sustainable must contain adequate open space, clean air and a wholesome environment flanked by trees, meadows, streams and opportunities for recreation and social gathering. Cities must be designed with native materials and natural processes to stand up to time. What i s tree Ordinance Olmsted relied upon trees, parks, and urban forests to provide ecosystem services for mankind. Nature in the city is sustainable. Frederick Law Olmsted

11 What Type of Ordinances?... Municipal Landscape Codes Community Tree Ordinances Urban Forestry Ordinances Land Development Regulations On-Site Storm Water Regulations Others
12 What is tree Ordinance What are Tree Ordinances? Public policy toward trees. Policy to: Public Forestry Operations Manage Public Trees, Damage to Public Trees, Tree Planting & Maintenance, Tree Removal Permits, Organize Community Forestry, Special provisions for -street trees -view shed protection, -arbor day programs, -regulate licensing, - organize tree boards.
13 Contemporary Tree Ordinances Contemporary Tree Ordinances Today tree ordinances consist of much more. They include. Standards for: Tree Planting & Landscaping Tree Protection, Tree Preservation, Tree Canopy Standards, Special provisions for -special tree recognition, -tree permits, -replacement mitigation, -tree banking, -tree foundation funding, - very active tree boards, -increased regulatory standards.
14 Contemporary Tree Ordinances Landscape Codes & L D R s Landscape Codes and Land Development Regulations rebuild and protect nature in the city too. Standards for: Landscape Design, Irrigation Design, Turf Grass Clearing, Grading & Storm Water, Tree Canopy Standards, Shading Special provisions for -street yards, -buffers, -screening, -VUA interiors, -VUA screening, - street walls -habitat protection specifications & details
15 Landscape Design Components Drive Thru Service
16 Greening The Codes? Greening the codes The future of tree ordinances is to become more integrated with community landscape codes, habitat protection regulations and on-site storm water management requirements. Trees and the urban forest must be seen by citizens As an integral part of the city that provides sustainable services.
17 Greening the codes Greening The Codes? To green tree ordinances, landscape codes and tree preservation ordinances they must be crafted to illustrate that the urban forest and its green infrastructure system provides a range of fundamental ecosystem services that will not only green a community but will help to sustain it.
18 Sustainability Sustainability? Defined as urban forest practices that meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs *Need for clean cities.. *Need for access to nature.. *Need for a healthy environment *Need for a well defined and managed forest canopy that provides Ecoservices for: climate modification air quality top soil protection clean water storm water management peace and enjoyment human well being protective animal habitat all to reduce costs, increase economy
19 Contemporary Tree Ordinances Written In Three Parts. Context -Purpose -Applicability -Definitions Technical Standards -Urban Forest Planning -Perpetual Forest Management -Strengthening & Replacement -Species Management -Urban Forest Linkage -Sustainability Metrics* Administrative -Public Involvement -Education -Permits -Penalties -Appeals * Reference to ASLA-SSI, USGCB-LEED, City Trees, NHBC, FYN etc
20 Sustainability Metrics Sustainability Metrics? green building practices;* tree protection; tree canopy standards; surface permeability site clearing controls; connectivity and accessibility to open space, parks, and trees; storm water management; shading, air quality planting standards appropriate species; and * Sustainable Sites Inititive, USGBC LEED -management of the urban forest.
