The City of Watertown will plant a street tree in front of homeowner’s properties. See how to request a tree in the announcement from the Department of Public Works.
Did you know you can request to have the City plant a street tree in front of your property for free! The Forestry Division planted 360 street trees during the 2023 season, and they aim to meet or exceed that number in 2024. Our urban tree canopy is vital to improving shade and air quality, while diminishing the urban heat island effect and managing stormwater runoff.
The request cutoff for spring plantings is the second week of April. Fill out the online street tree request form.
