The Tree Board of the City of Albertville will host a meeting on October 12th at 6:00 p.m. in Council Chambers at City Hall for the purpose of assisting those citizens that were affected by the tornado that devastated Albertville on April 24th. 

“Fall is the beginning of tree planting season and we would like to help the residents of Albertville in determining what, how and when to plant trees to replace those lost in the storm”, said John Penny, President of the Tree Board. He went on to say that “this meeting is meant to assist citizens as they make their landscaping plans by offering knowledge and expertise - not dictate what can or can’t be planted.”

Reba Cofield, President of the Beautification Board adds that “as a member of the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, the City of Albertville advocates the planting and nurturing of trees in our community. This outreach effort will allow us to share the City’s goals and concerns with our citizens.”
