All trees will be planted, staked and tied, watered and maintained in accordance with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection's tree planting guidelines. A representative street side project location can be found at the 300 block of E. Evans Avenue. A representative park project can be found at 9th Street Park at the intersection of 9th Street and Mt.
