The canopy <br />cover analysis shows that 70% (2,446 acres) of the City's <br />total canopy cover is located on private property, with the <br />remaining 30% (1,027 acres) located on public land and <br />rights-of-way. The City of Pleasanton is committed to the <br />preservation of trees throughout the community, recognizing <br />that residents play a crucial role in maintaining and growing <br />the urban forest. Individuals are encouraged to actively <br />engage in urban forestry by maintaining healthy trees on <br />residential properties, participating in tree planting events, <br />and speaking up for tree preservation in public forums.
