Shade Tree Commission

The Shade Tree Commission ensures the trees lining the borough streets, which so greatly add to the beauty and charm of the borough, are protected and properly maintained.
​
The Borough has been designated as a Tree City USA community (link opens in a new window) for 43 years.
Trees planted in the verge of borough streets belong to the borough and cannot be removed or altered without the permission of the Shade Tree Commission. Trees growing along the borough alleyways belong to the property owners in whose yards they are growing.
Contact the Shade Tree Commission at milfordboro.treecommission@gmail.com with questions or concerns about an individual tree, health, or ownership. Include your name, address, and contact information in your email.
