In Plain English
The city wants to develop a comprehensive plan for expanding trees, parks, and green spaces throughout Richmond. The state offers grants through a 2006 environmental bond program to help cities create these plans. If approved, Richmond can apply for funding to map current green areas and identify where new trees and parks are most needed.
