2018 lOWER gRAND rIVER uRBAN tREE cANOPY aSSESSMENT pROJECT
​In 2018, ReLeaf Michigan, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, the Lower Grand River Organization of Watersheds, an agency of the Grand Valley Metro Council and the Davey Resource Group, Inc. received a
​USDA Forest Service Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) grant to assist four communities in the Lower Grand River Watershed.  The grant provided funding to assess the urban tree canopy in each community and identify ways to increase this tree canopy to intercept stormwater, reduce runoff and improve water quality within the Lower Grand River watershed and the Great Lakes basin,  This website describes the findings of the assessments and provides recommendations for each community.
