Back to SearchThe City of Dieppe is looking to increase the number of trees in the municipality. Expanding the urban forest is a winning approach and concept for many green cities around the world.
For help in achieving this goal, the municipality has hired a consultant, Bruno Chicoine, who is proposing three main strategies: regulations involving tree-cutting permits, a tree survey to identify and assess existing trees, and measures aimed at protecting trees.
A public consultation was launched today to canvass residents on the matter.
“Through the Dieppe Dialogue public consultation platform, we are asking residents to complete a short survey, participate in two discussion forums and provide us with feedback,” said André Frenette, Director of Planning and Development. “The input received will help us to better understand any issues surrounding the consultant’s proposals and possibly find alternative answers and solutions,” he added.
The consultation runs until February 15 at www.dieppedialogue.ca
