Can I plant a street tree myself or hire a contractor to do it?

Absolutely! The last thing we want to do is to impede the planting of more trees in Marysville.

However, in order to ensure that the tree and location you select lines up with city goals and ordinances, you are required to receive written permission from the Urban Forester before proceeding. We will partner with you to make sure the process goes smoothly.
