NEW YORK CITY FREE TREE PLANTING PROGRAM

Over the years, many of the trees in our community have died. A program from the Parks & Recreation Department of the City of New York offers the planting of new trees at no expense to the homeowner. Their only requirement is that each homeowner must give his/her permission and that there be a plot of land available at the curb for planting of a tree.

If you want a tree planted at the curb near your home, please fill out the form below and return it to the Young Israel of Hillcrest office. Please make copies of this form and offer them to your neighbors as well.

DEADLINE is November 30, 2004. Please make sure to have the form in the office no later than that date. We will then submit all the copies at the same time to the New York City agency sponsoring this program. We hope the planting will take place in Spring, 2005.

Please help us beautify our community.
