The City of Oak Park Department of Public Works is a proud recipient of the Tree City designation again this year. This is our 40th year receiving this award and our 20th year as a Growth Award recipient.

Once we begin the process of selecting tree locations for each planting season, city staff will inspection each property to ensure that the area is large enough and can support the growth of a tree.
We cannot tell you when the tree will be planted, but can assure you that we will keep your request on file for future consideration. If you have any questions, please reach out to our staff at the Department of Public Works. We can be reached at 248-691-7497.
