** Tree City USA!
------------------------------------------------------------
The City of East Lansing planted 280 trees in 2024 as part of the City's goal to create a “fully-stocked” urban forest. Trees help create shade, cool the environment, sequester carbon, manage stormwater and provide wildlife habitat. Planting in public spaces will continue this year; however, private property also plays a vital role in expanding the urban forest. The City encourages residents to consider planting a tree on their privately-owned property for benefits to the entire neighborhood!

City staff can offer recommendations and guidance on tree selection. To request a planting, fill out an inspection form online (https://www.cityofeastlansing.com/FormCenter/Public-Works-6/Street-Tree-Planting-Request-Application-119) or call (517) 337-9459. For street tree requests in public right-of-way areas, submit a request form online (https://www.cityofeastlansing.com/FormCenter/Public-Works-6/Street-Tree-Planting-Request-Application-119) (please note that planting is not guaranteed and there may be a wait due to demand).
