This additional funding will allow for the purchase of trees that are a bit larger at the time of planting (3” to 3.5” caliper) than what is currently planned (2” caliper). Larger trees will be sturdier and provide more benefits to the downtown at the time of planting. In 2019, McCall Rotary Club provided grant funds and volunteer assistance to plant trees at Riverfront Park. This proposed project will continue the McCall Rotary Club’s support for local economic development and environmental stewardship. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve submittal of a McCall Rotary Club grant application and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents. RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE ACTION
