Comment:
Dear Ms. Livingston: We are writing today to provide comments, including support for comments provided by the California Urban Forest Council in their letter dated September 12, 2014 (Item 2) regarding the Air Resources Board Guidance for Cap-and-Trade and SB 535, and consideration of the many benefits of urban forestry. We are very pleased that Urban Forestry, Land Use, and Water Use Efficiency have a significant role in the State’s Cap and Trade expenditure plan for 2014/15 and beyond. To that end, we also provide comments (attached) to support the use of urban forestry to achieve many aspects of these roles to benefit disadvantaged communities through the combined effort of tree planting, landscape transformation and parcel-level stormwater capture. Please let us know if you have any questions, and thank for your consideration of our comments. Yours, Peter Massey Director of Grants TreePeople
