If one of the things that drew you to Avondale Estates was the tree canopy, then you might be a great fit for the city’s Tree Board. Openings on the board need to be filled with residents who want to maintain and improve our tree canopy. More specifics can be found in the city’s ordinance governing the Tree Board.
The first event will be the annual tree planting in conjunction with Trees Atlanta 9 a.m. to noon on Nov. 20.
