(a) The City hereby establishes a program on certain streets in Middleburg Heights to enable the City to plant street trees on front lawns of privately owned properties where permission from the owner is granted and contingent upon an agreement signed by both the City and said owner specifying terms, and including such details as the location of the tree and obligations of each party for planting and care, with the agreement substantially in the form attached to Res. 2020-25 as Exhibit A.
(b) The street or streets eligible for this program shall be annually designated and communicated to Council by the Director of Public Service or his or her designee. The primary factors for inclusion of a street in the program shall be the lack of availability of viable street tree planting sites on tree lawns of a street due to their narrowness, the presence of obstacles to planting or viability, or both.
