Trees play a vital role in Alabama urban landscape.
Well-managed trees are a vital part of the urban environment and enhance the quality-of-life in our communities and towns. The key to their enjoyment is to have trees that are safe, healthy, plentiful, well placed and attractive.

Trees: Making Public Spaces Better
