LOCAL STORY
Arlington needs help to count its trees
(Arlington, TX)- Increasing Arlington's tree
canopy could bring a different type of green to the city: more federal
grant funding and savings to the taxpayers through energy cost
reductions and storm-water mitigation. "If we can show areas of need
and say we've got proof this area is environmentally inferior due to
the lack of trees, we will be able to qualify for more grants." said
city forester Matt Churches.
