Town of West Seneca Awarded Urban and Community Forestry Grant $75,000 Grant will assist the Town in creating a tree inventory system West Seneca, NY – The Town of West Seneca has been awarded a $75,000 Urban and Community Forestry Grant from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to create a comprehensive tree inventory system.
The West Seneca Environmental Commission pursued this grant and will collaborate with other town officials and departments to ensure its successful implementation. Funding will support the town's efforts to inventory, plant, and maintain public trees within the community.
The Urban and Community Forestry Grant Program aims to increase public awareness of the importance of trees and helps communities develop and implement comprehensive tree management plans. These plans are essential for creating healthy forests, enhancing the quality of life for residents, and protecting the environment. The benefits of urban and community forests are numerous.
Trees help to improve air quality by absorbing pollutants and releasing oxygen. They conserve water and reduce stormwater runoff, enhance property values, provide shade and reduce energy costs, create habitats for wildlife, and improve mental and physical health. The Town of West Seneca is committed to protecting and enhancing its natural resources.
This grant will allow the town to take significant steps towards achieving its community forestry goals. By developing a tree inventory and management plan, the town will be better equipped to prioritize maintenance, planting efforts, and preservation strategies. West Seneca is one of 18 communities across New York State to receive funding through this round of DEC's Urban and Community Forestry Program.
Nearly one million dollars in total were awarded state-wide. These projects collectively aim to protect air and water quality, and our natural resources. West Seneca looks forward to utilizing this grant to strengthen its local tree management efforts, long-term natural resources, and overall quality of life.
