About the Shade Tree Commission
The Shade Tree Commission is charged with maintaining a healthy and safe community forest resource. Good management of our community forest will improve our air and water quality, reduce energy costs, increase property values, improve the health of our residents, and beautifies our Borough. The Shade Tree Commission enforces the Borough’s tree removal and tree replacement Ordinances. Learn more about the Shade Tree Commission in the Stanhope Ordinance/Code Book.
