Gunnedah Shire Council has engaged Stewart Surveys Pty Ltd to update the Street Tree Strategy for the Shire. The strategy aims to guide the embellishment of key vehicular entry points, public parks and streets within Gunnedah, Breeza, Carroll, Curlewis, Mullaley, Tambar Springs and the surrounding villages and localities.
Street trees are an important natural asset that improve the amenity of our streets and
add value to the character of our communities. This strategy aims to strengthen
Gunnedah Shire Council’s commitment to sustainability by enhancing the existing
street tree coverage within the shire. This in turn will improve the appeal
and livability of the urban spaces by reducing the heat island effect during
summer months and provide increased habitat and well-being benefits.
We are seeking community input for the strategy by completing this short survey.
