In addition, the City of McCall qualifies for a Tree City “Growth Award” which is based on urban forestry practices that exceed the minimum standards. Because of the extraordinary efforts of the Golf Course Superintendent and crew, and the Parks Supervisor and crew, the City of McCall will receive a Growth Award for 2002 from the National Arbor Day Foundation.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the submission of Tree City recertification and Growth Award applications, and authorize the Mayor to sign.
