Boulevard Tree Program

Our green canopy is one of our community's most beautiful assets. The green canopy provides our community with shelter from the wind and heat, as well as improves air quality.

Are you a property owner in the Town of Maple Creek? Do you have two trees on your boulevard? No? Then you qualify for the Boulevard Tree Program!
