About OUR
Coalition

Who We Are

We are a citizens coalition that believes having a Shade Tree Commission is important.

Southampton's Shade Tree Commission works to improve neighborhood appeal, attracting businesses, shoppers, and homeowners. Southampton's Shade Tree Commission works to plant trees, prevent power outages due to trees, and protects the citizens by being proactive with hazard tree removal. It is important to have and we are a group of residents trying save it from being disbanded by the Township Committee! The Commission is a vital community resource that has been serving the community since 1972 or 43 years!
We believe the Shade Tree Commission has benefited Southampton. Southampton's Shade Tree Commission has planted 157 trees from 2011 to 2014. They have caused the removal of 1, 311 hazard trees from 2011 to 2014. Their work continues to plant trees and remove hazard trees.
Our community's volunteers on the Commission have earned recognition.  Southampton's Shade Tree Commission earned Tree City USA recognition from 2011 to 2014. The Shade Tree Commission earned the prestigious Tree City USA Growth Award in 2013 and 2014.

Trees require adequate care and are a precious asset. This required maintenance requires the assistance of volunteers with decision making authority due to the enormous undertaking.
