Homeowner Association Urban Forest Stewardship Project - Advancing Advocacy and Best Management Practices Through Training and Education (31-NA-BP120-31)
| Homeowners Associations (HOAs) are a rapidly growing constituent group in America and are often charged with the management of street and private trees, natural resources, parks, and conservation areas/easements within their subdivisions. HOAs oversee the management of, perform maintenance on, and can directly affect a significant quantity of landscape trees, forest cover, and natural resources, yet often lack the knowledge and resources to properly manage these assets for the benefit and safety of the residents, visitors, and the community at-large. The project’s objective is to transfer best practices information nationally to this significant, potentially powerful and growing target audience by creating presentation and support materials for workshops that can be delivered by public-sector urban foresters, private consulting arborists, and allied organizations to HOA boards, contracted property management companies, and even HOA members across the country. The rapid development of our suburban and rural areas for residential housing and the subsequent growth of the governing HOAs is undeniable; as is, therefore, the need to get sustainable urban forestry BMPs to this under-served target audience. |
