Speaker: Colette Copic, Chicago Region Trees Initiative
Title: 21st Century Ordinance Builder
Description: As communities expand and develop, it’s important to maximize your community’s resources for sustainable and long-term growth. Implementing tree protections into a development code is one way to ensure that future generations will enjoy the many benefits of trees, while balancing the benefits of development. In this seminar, Colette will give key recommendations for drafting important tree protections in your landscape or zoning ordinances. Specifically, Colette will explain the latest interactive tool from CRTI to help you craft tree preservation code in your community. This tool was co-created by CRTI, The Morton Arboretum, and the CRTI Trees and Green Infrastructure Workgroup and contains different key components related to trees and their protections commonly found in zoning or development ordinances in Illinois.
