TREE PLANTING PROGRAM
In efforts to ensure the Town of Carleton Place’s
tree population is maintained and enhanced
for years to come, we are making trees
available to Town of Carleton Place residents at
a subsidized rate. For $20.00 (taxes included) a
tree of 25mm (1 inch) in thickness and 6’ to 8’ in
height will be made available.
Species available are:
Large Trees; Sugar Maple, Red Oak,
Hackberry
Smaller Trees; Showy Mountain Ash,
Flowering Crabapple (Edible), MacIntosh
Apple
Vouchers for trees will be available for
collection at one information session that
will be held at the Arena (75 Neelin Street):
Wednesday May 6, 2015 start time is 7 p.m.
Because these trees are subsidized
anyone who has their name on a tree list
must attend (or have previously attended)
the information session to be eligible for
a tree voucher.
Residents must call before the session in order
to be placed on a list for a tree. Call 613-2572253 to have your name placed on the list or
leave a message providing your name, address,
telephone number and tree desired and your
name will be placed on the list.
There are a limited number of trees available.
Trees will be provided on a first come
first served basis and a limit of 2 trees per
household.
These trees are available ONLY to
taxpayers of the Town of Carleton Place
and must be planted within Town limits.
Information sessions are open to the public
for general information regarding tree
planting and maintenance.
WATER OFF
Effective APRIL 15, 2015, residents who were
advised in writing by the Town of Carleton Place

their water service from freezing, can now turn
off those taps. We appreciate your cooperation
and patience during this unusually cold winter.
Should you have any questions regarding this
matter, please contact the Public Works office
