    • Initial questions: getting to the point of developing a plan

    If you are considering seeking approval to develop an urban forest management plan, this series of questions will need to be addressed. If you have the necessary approvals and budget in hand, reviewing these questions is still pertinent; answers to most of these questions are related to the process of developing the plan or feed directly into plan.

    Use the link at the bottom of the page to step through these questions. You can also download a Microsoft Word worksheet which will allow you to fill in this information offline.

        

    Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now.
