John Houde
Abstract: Preservation of trees on public property is becoming an important issue with demolition of existing houses and the construction of new homes on existing house lots. In the Chicago area, Glencoe, Highland Park, Park Ridge, Winnetka and others have experienced this redevelopment process. Glencoe as a case study offers us an insight into steps that can be taken to preserve established parkway trees from construction damage. This article describes how to structure the bureaucracy of municipal government to successfully preserve street trees in older established towns or neighborhoods.
