Urban Forestry
Williston Urban Forest Projects In 2007, the Williston Community Forestry Plan was established which evaluated existing policies, resources and operations relating to public trees, assessed current needs, and established goals and actions for management of Williston’s community forest for the next five years. The overall goal of the 5-year plan was to design and implement a practical Community Forestry Program in Williston that allows the town to get the maximum benefit out of its tree resources over the long term. While the Plan has yet to be implemented in full, a few urban forestry projects are in the works:
