Now Available: Legislative
Tools for Heritage Tree Protection
After many months of research and revision by Barbara Heidenreich of
the OHTA, this component of the Toolkit is now available as a pdf file
on this site by clicking on the link Legislative
Tools. Please send queries and comments to Barbara
Heidenreich.
The Heritage
Trees Protection Toolkit: Progress Report is still available
by clicking on the link above. This will take you to the complete article
concerning the significant progress that was made on the preparation
of all the toolkit components, and especially on designing forms for
nominating and evaluating candidate heritage trees. Within this article
are links to each of six forms of these tools and the guidelines for
their use.
Test site information from Simcoe County and Elora contributed to the
preparation of these draft instruments. Insights based on their experiences
in nominating, evaluating and dedicating trees for protection can be
obtained from David
Pearl (Simcoe County) and from Toni
Ellis (Elora).
