Did you know that well-placed trees . . .

  • help stabilize the soil by controlling wind and water erosion
  • help reduce noise levels and cleanse pollutants
  • produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide
  • decrease residential energy consumption
  • provide habitat to wildlife

The Mayor and City Council have recognized these benefits and realize the need to protect their investment with a comprehensive urban forest management program. The City Service Department Division of Forestry is responsible for all city-owned trees. It monitors the planting, pruning and removal of trees on public property, which includes trees within the right of way (including on tree lawns), parks and around municipal buildings.

In Strongsville, more than 112,000 trees provide beauty and shade in our community.
