From Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez Desk – Removing Dead Trees and Replanting to Rebuild Tree Canopy

Removing dead trees and replanting to rebuild our tree canopy is work I’ve been leading with the Urban Forestry Division since taking office in 2017. It’s why I secured funding to eliminate the backlog of requests for tree trimming, dead trees, and stump removal across the Seventh Council District. Last weekend, UFD was in Pacoima where the crew trimmed 13 trees and removed one stump that posed a safety danger in Pacoima.
To learn more about our efforts in maintaining our urban canopy, please call my Pacoima office at (818) 485-0600, Sylmar office at (818) 756-8409, or Sunland-Tujunga office at (818) 352-3287.
