KEY FINDINGS
  Summary
•  8,230 trees, 99 stumps, and 2,525 vacant planting sites were inventoried citywide.
•  Maples are overrepresented (~51% of trees); future maple planting should be
  limited to uncommon species.
•  Overall tree condition is Fair–Good and can improve with proactive maintenance.
•  ROW stocking is 76%, indicating room for additional tree planting.
•  Inventoried trees provide ~$79,800 annually in ecosystem services.
•  Large-stature trees provide the greatest benefits and should be prioritized.
