The Development Services Department (DSD) Community Tree Preservation Division is hosting a monthly lunch and learn series starting this July that will run through October. The goal of the in-person sessions is to increase tree ordinance knowledge and raise awareness about how the City and community stakeholders can work in partnership to protect our urban forest.
These catered events are open to all Austinites and those involved in projects inside the city limits. The presentation will cover information that is specifically relevant to permit holders and those connected with development and landscaping industries. Participants will also have an opportunity to ask questions of the City Arborist and other DSD tree personnel.
The engagements will be hosted at the Permitting and Development Center located at 6310 Wilhelmina Delco Drive. Attendees are welcome to park in the attached parking garage. We anticipate parking process changes in the coming months and will follow up with registrants to provide special instructions should the need arise.
