Urban tree programme
Generated practice text
Zusätzliche Übung
In 2024, the city planted 2,000 trees as part of a programme designed to reduce summer heat and improve air quality. Native species are preferred, but they are not used exclusively because some locations require especially drought-tolerant varieties.
Each newly planted tree is inspected after one year and again after three years. Residents may request a tree for their street, but the city makes the final decision after checking underground utilities, pavement width and traffic safety.
The programme is financed through the municipal budget and private donations. The city has not published what proportion of the total cost comes from donations.
