CANTON – The Village of Canton will receive $32,000 to aid with tree maintenance from the Department of Conservation.
In celebration of Arbor Day, Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Commissioner Basil Seggos said that grants totaling $1.18 million have been awarded to communities across the state to inventory, plant, and maintain public trees.
Canton was the only municipality in the North Country Region to receive funding.
The grants are part of the second phase of grants through DEC's Division of Lands and Forests’ Urban and Community Forestry Program, which works to increase public awareness of the importance of trees and help communities develop and implement comprehensive tree management plans to create healthy forests while enhancing quality of life.
