West Linn, Tree City USA Since 1993

Since 1993 West Linn has achieved the Tree City USA award along with initial Tree City USA Growth Award. Thanks to City Arborist Ron Jones for all the hard work along with all city staff who contribute to achieving the award throughout the year.

To qualify as a Tree City USA community, you must meet four standards established by the Arbor Day Foundation and the National Association of State Foresters. These standards were established to ensure that every qualifying community would have a viable tree management program and that no community would be excluded because of size.

The Tree City USA Growth Award is presented by the Arbor Day Foundation to participating Tree City USA communities that demonstrate higher levels of tree care and community engagement during the calendar year.
