Alyson,

I would start by looking at some of the research work by Kathleen Wolfe. She
has done a lot of work in this area.

Subject: [CANUFNET] Trees Improving Businesses

Hello all, 

I'm working for the City of Thunder Bay, ON. We in the Parks section are
working hard to implement a private tree pilot program on our main arterial
routes. Many of these main routes are commercial in nature and we are trying
to educate/convince the business owners of the benefits of trees. We are
looking for any anecdotal or scientific evidence or articles that indicate
that trees improve businesses. It would be preferential to have this
information about Canadian city improvements, maybe BIA's that have
increased businesses income. If anyone knows of any news articles,
scientific articles or fact sheets that would show this information please
forward it to me at acarter at thunderbay.ca.

Thank you so much for your time, 

Alyson Carter, B. Tech., MES
