Shade Tree Committee

Dedicated to improving Geneva’s urban environment through trees

The City of Geneva’s Shadetree Committee oversees all aspects of City Tree: planting, trimming, and removal. The current Committee consists of eight volunteers appointed by the City Manager for three-year terms and is supported by City Staff; it holds monthly meeting open to the public.

The Committee’s work covers a wide range:

• Projects
• Policies and Procedures

The goal of this work is to advise City officials and residents on how to create and maintain a healthy, functional, and safe urban forest.
