Open House: Tree Planting Plan – White Pines Wind Project
August 30, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
The County of Prince Edward will be undertaking a project to replant trees in areas where trees were removed or impacted by the cancelled White Pines Wind Project (WPD).
The County’s arborist investigated areas that were disturbed as part of the WPD project including Crowes Road, Royal Road and Maypul Layn Road to determine their suitability for tree planting.
After considering all factors the recommended approach for Royal Road and Maypu Layn Road is to plant approximately 25 larger caliper trees (45 mm) this fall. A contractor will plant these trees.
Tree species selected for Royal Road and Maypul Layn Road will adhere to diversity requirements set out in the County’s Tree Management and Preservation Policy and be suitable the local conditions.
Residents are invited to an open house to discuss the locations and tour the proposed plan on Wednesday, August 30 between 5 pm and 6 pm. Those interested in attending are invited to meet with staff at 1071 Royal Road. Please note that seating will not be provided and attendees are asked to bring their own chairs if required.
