# Tree Committee - 10/13/2026

The Town of Bridgewater Tree Committee met on October 13, 2026. Members discussed town tree plantings, including six proposed trees on Broad Street. The committee voted to authorize Brian to consult with Steve on the species; if they agree on red oaks, the town will proceed with planting the six trees this fall. Members confirmed that funding had already been allocated up to a previously established limit, but no dollar amount was stated. Brian will coordinate planting locations with the Highway Department and Dig Safe for the common plantings and update the committee on timing. No contract award, vendor selection, or new procurement was identified.

The committee also discussed an adopt-a-tree program and updates to the committee website, but made no decision to launch the program; members will continue considering options before the next meeting. The September 8 meeting minutes were approved. The committee adjourned after a motion and vote.
