For those of you wondering why we shouldn't sacrifice our trees to "protect" trees in the outer suburbs, take a look. #ArlingtonVA #MoreTreesPlease tinyurl.com/5hcca4v9
Hey @ArlingtonVA! You like to be trendy. Here's one that's too good to miss. @arlparksrec @ArlingtonDES We're looking at you too! #arlingtonVA #MoreTreesPlease

Support Trees! Attend @CivFed's Collaborative on Preserving Arlington's Tree Canopy's Plenary Meeting TAKE ACTION FOR TREES! When: May 7 - 9:30am-12:30pm Where: Arlington Mill Community Center More info here: bit.ly/3vZu8kb Register here: bit.ly/3Lzr1pN
Tomorrow is the last day for providing feedback on Arlington's CIP. Tell the County trees are infrastructure and you want resources dedicated to our trees. Survey here: bit.ly/3in2gjG ATAG's thoughts on the survey here: bit.ly/3tqwDff
Tell Arlington to Invest in Trees as Green Infrastructure! County CIP survey open until 3/22 bit.ly/3in2gjG For more of ATAG's thoughts on the survey, visit our website: bit.ly/3tqwDff
Did you know a builder needs to provide only 20% of tree canopy for any single family home project even even if they clear the lot? 20% lot coverage is not sufficient to sustain Arlington's tree canopy. @ArlingtonVA this has to stop! #MoreTreesPlease bit.ly/3GZqOsL
.@ArlTreeAction briefed the County Board Feb 12 about better enforcement of rules, and tweaks to the rules, that would save more trees during "by-right" construction, which is depleting the 61% of our tree canopy. arlingtontreeactiongroup.org/wp-content/upl…
@ArlTreeAction will be speaking to the County Board, around 8:35 am tomorrow, Feb 12, to urge action to preserve more trees during residential construction projects. Construction and development are causing rapid loss of mature canopy. Come support ATAG and trees!
Come support ATAG at the County Board Meeting 8:30 AM on Saturday, Feb 12. Our topic: excessive tree on construction project sites county-wide. Stand with us and let the Board know there is broad support for change!
It's not too late to register for Phase 2 of the Arlington CivFed's Public Collaborative on Preserving our Tree Canopy! ALL backgrounds and all perspectives encouraged to attend. Meeting will be via Zoom on Sat, 5/22, from 9:30 AM to Noon. Register here: bit.ly/3v6aSzN
Here's an opportunity to "move the needle" on tree preservation in Arlington! Join Phase 2 of the Civic Federation's Public Collaborative on Preserving Arlington's Tree Canopy via Zoom on Saturday, 5/22, from 9:30 AM to Noon. Register here: bit.ly/3v5QpeB
Want to preserve Arlington's tree canopy? @VaDOT wants to "improve" turning lanes on Rt 50 and Filmore at a cost of 18 trees, 1.6 acres of permeable land, $29 million. @susmoarlington has suggested feedback: bit.ly/3tnQlVB Online comment form: bit.ly/3eYIJUw

This project kills me, @VaDOTNOVA @VaDOT. Turn lanes could be created using existing pavement NOW, saving 18 trees (heads up @ArlTreeAction), 1.6 acres of permeable land, $29M, and dozens of lives. Not a smart project. Please rethink.
