MADISON TREE INVENTORY

In 2003 Madison received a matching grant from the Georgia Forestry Commission to conduct the Madison Tree Inventory. This project assessed all trees growing within the City of Madison limits upon public property. Basic information was gathered: tree - species, size , condition, location, crown spread, health, structure, pests and needs; growing space - size, availability, and growing space. Additionally, the assessment included overall condition, health and liabilities of each tree. As a further objective, city employees and volunteers were trained in the methods/techniques of street tree inventory, as well as, management of the tree inventory data and use of the software program.
