An Executive Order directing City departments to protect and grow our City’s tree canopy by developing and enacting specific actions to prepare for and mitigate the impacts of climate change and invasive pests on trees found within City of Seattle property to address equity concerns and to protect our environment. Creates a One Seattle Tree Fund, sets targets for new tree plantings, outlines remediation strategies for unhealthy trees, and requires reporting through an Urban Forestry Progress Report.
