[CANUFNET] Question about trees as capital assets

[Maddy Crowell]

Hello! I work for a municipality in PEI and am looking for assistance in understanding the current thinking around trees as capital assets. There seems to be quite a bit of opinion but I can't determine where the PSAB stands on this and which municipalities are already doing this. I am looking for info specifically on including purchased trees for planting in capital budgets, and whether this is being done and if so, what are the pros/cons. Any help would be great. Thanks!
