The City of Monroe Parks and Forestry provides tree planting,
pruning and maintenance for over 3800 trees along city streets and
over 900 trees located in city parks. Trees are pruned to maintain
clearance over streets and sidewalks. Tree pruning is also done on
trees that are blocking street lights, signs, intersections and to
remove dead and broken limbs. Terrace trees are removed that
are dead, diseased or in poor condition.
A terrace tree planting program is offered in the spring and fall.

Property owners can purchase a tree from the department and the
Parks and Forestry staff will work with you to determine the planting
location and plant the tree. The trees are given a one year
guarantee. Over 2200 trees have been planted through this program
on city terraces since the planting program began in the fall of 1986.
In 2017, the National Arbor Day Foundation named Monroe a Tree

City USA for the 29th consecutive year. The Foundation recognizes
cities who meet the standards with their Urban Forestry Programs.
In 2017, Monroe also received a Tree City USA Growth Award. The
Growth Award recognizes Tree City communities that have made
significant improvements in their tree care efforts.
