Help Us Grow a Better and More Equitable Urban Forest

The city is updating its Urban Forest Management Plan (UFMP) and needs your help. The current plan was developed in 2019 before Milwaukie's Tree Code (2022), influx of middle housing, and the 2021 Pacific Northwest heat dome. The plan is a living document, meant to be updated every five years to incorporate significant shifts in the context, impacts, and constraints that the community is feeling with regards to trees and the urban forest.

  • Trees do more than make neighborhoods look nice—they keep streets cooler during extreme heat, reduce energy bills, improve air quality, manage stormwater, and support community health.

    As Milwaukie grows and faces hotter summers, how we care for and expand our tree canopy will directly affect daily life. The city is updating its Urban Forest Management Plan and wants your input.
