As part of the City’s ongoing commitment to expanding and strengthening the urban tree canopy, the Residential Tree Subsidy Program helps eligible single-family homeowners plant new street trees at a reduced cost.

Residents may receive a $250 rebate for planting an approved Florida Grade #1 street tree, measuring over 10 feet in height, on their property. Rebates are issued after the tree has been inspected, properly established, and confirmed to be thriving.

Residents can choose from a variety of canopy-enhancing tree species from the City’s approved list.

  • The tree must be a street tree that is at least 10 feet tall.
  • The tree must meet Florida Grade #1 quality standards.
