<div>Dear CUFN members:<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As part of the Canadian Urban Forest Strategy, I am currently compiling<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> a compr</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">ehensive</span><font size="3"> list of municipalities with urban forest </font>management<font size="3"> plans
and strategies </font><span style="font-size: 12pt;">across</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Cana</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">d</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">a. </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br>
</span></div>
<div>Recently, our CUFN Steering Committee has been receiving increased inquiries about access to such data and we intend to make it available to communities on the CUFN website. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If your municipality has an urban forest plan or strategy, or if you are in the process of developing such a document, please contact me directly. <br>
</div>
