Urban and Community Forestry Sub grants

Crescent Valley Community Park Mesquite Arboretum Adcock Elementary School, Las Vegas

he Nevada Division of Forestry’s Urban and Community Forestry (U&CF) Grant Program for community tree planting projects will not be funded for the 2006-2007 grant cycle. It is unlikely these projects will be funded again in the near future.

Normally, this program provides $25,000 to $35,000 each year in project funds to Nevada communities and non-profit organizations. However, the federal funding that supports the U&CF Program was significantly reduced for the foreseeable future.

Any funds that do become available for sub grant awards will target community program development in the areas of performing tree inventories, developing tree ordinances and management plans, or to provide professional forestry staffing.

NDF Urban Forestry staff is available to provide technical assistance for grant projects funded from other sources.
