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
