Project Description
The Town of Summerville is seeking proposals from qualified companies with experience in urban forest assessment and management to procure and prepare a Street Tree Inventory and Data Report.

This will be the first phase in completing an inventory of right-of-way trees and park trees. The completed inventory will help prioritize tree care activities and deliver urban forestry services efficiently and cost effectively.
