The Commemorative Tree provides for the planting of trees in village parks. The tree variety is chosen by the village, based on the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Department, and donors can choose from this selection. Trees will be approximately 2-1/2-inches in diameter and a minimum of six feet in height. The cost to the donor includes the purchase of the tree, delivery, installation, commemorative brick paver (a brick paver with inscription will be placed in front of the tree) and maintenance. The cost will only cover the estimated life of the tree. The tree will be planted in a village park with the final location selected by the Parks and Recreation Department, based on the donor's requests.
