Steve Robinson, Manager of Burlington’s Urban Forest, reports that he had the unique opportunity to present alongside Tyler Searls and Ben Kuttner today at the 2024 Ontario Urban Forest Council (OUFC) conference. We presented on the merits of Managing Urban Woodlands as Assets, using the City of BNurlington’s Woodland Management Strategy as a case study.
