Establishes the Municipal Reforestation Program to aid municipalities in planting and maintaining urban trees.
The Municipal Reforestation Program, established by this bill, aims to support municipalities in developing and implementing reforestation plans. Each participating municipality must create a plan within three years of the act's enactment, focusing on increasing urban tree canopy cover. The plans prioritize areas with low tree canopy cover, high pollution levels, and environmental justice neighborhoods. The program includes an advisory council to provide technical assistance and advice to municipalities.
