Description:

Residential Street Tree Rebate
Thank you for your interest in the City of Woodland's Tree Rebate Program. Under this program, the City will reimburse the purchase price of residential street tree(s) up to $75 per address. Why Plant Street Trees?

Trees cool hot streets, sidewalks and homes, resulting in significant energy savings. They filter harmful carbon dioxide from the air and replace it with life-giving oxygen. Trees also give shelter to wildlife, muffle noise and provide privacy. Overall, trees increase property values, add beauty and grace to our community, and become a priceless heritage for future generations.

1. Read the Rebate Conditions below, and use the information on the Master Street Tree List to choose the best tree for your yard.
