2007 Tree Inspection

In November of 2007, Nyack hired Dean Dykeman to conduct a tree inspection for village’s 300+ trees. (see PDF Report)

The contract was for only $3,000 so it was a “drive-by” visual inspection with no measuring, borings, etc.

The report suggested removing about 20 trees and dozens in dire need of pruning.

The report suggest the Village needs a tree management plan including:

• Annual Inspection of all village trees
• Development of a tree removal and replanting program
• An annual budget for tree care
• Designation of a certified arborist to help manage the village trees
