Street Trees May Be Planted Soon, Committee Notes Members of Medford's ' street tree planning commit- ttee have reminded residents that trees should be planted soon if citizens along streets plan to plant them this spring. Several trees have been planted along parking strips already this spring, commit tee members noted, but the time in which they can be planted is becoming limited. The street tree planting program was started about four years ago, and many streets in the city have been planted. Members pointed out that residents may plant what they wish on their own property, and the committee " will give advice as to the type of tree desirable if contacted. How ever, if residents wish to plant trees . in the parking strip -that is the area-between the sidewalk or its location and the street they must first find out from the city which tree is designated for that particular street. Streets Planned The committee has most of the city streets planned. The program has been developed and trees selected on the basis of soil, what type tree would look best and other factors. . Members of the committee also pointed out that residents who wish to remove trees from the parking strip must first obtain a permit from the city, or be subject to a fine. The parking strip, committee members noted, is city proper ty, and residents must ob serve city ordinances in plan ning to remove or plant trees there. Residents wishing to plant trees in the parking strip may contact the city hall to obtain the name of the tree selected for the street on which they live.
