• A long- term vision for the urban forest

• Updated goals, recommendations, and targets

• Operational plans to guide implementation

The development of the UFMP involves two phases of public engagement. The first phase of engagement took place in June of 2022. The community input helped form the vision and strategic directions of the draft Urban Forest Master Plan.


The second phase of engagement launches on May 23, 2023, to collect feedback on the draft Plan. Visit this page between May 23 to June 30 to provide your input through the second phase of engagement. Please subscribe to this project page to stay up-to-date.

    Burlington Urban Forest Master Plan - Survey

    This survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.   

                                                                                                                  

    In 2022, we asked Burlington community members about their vision for the urban forest and their priorities for urban forest management within the City. Your feedback helped us draft the City’s Urban Forest Master Plan (UFMP), including a vision and a strategic framework that provides a ‘roadmap’ for the future of urban forestry in Burlington.  


    In this second phase of engagement, we want you to help us prioritize goals and supporting actions as we work to finalize the draft Urban Forest Master Plan. This survey provides you with an opportunity to identify priority themes, goals, and associated actions you feel are of importance and higher implementation priority as the UFMP is finalized. 


    You can review the draft Urban Forest Master Plan and leave comments about the draft here 


    Your participation in this survey is voluntary.  Individual responses will be kept confidential. Non-identifiable summaries of responses may be developed and shared publicly.  For questions regarding the collection, use and disclosure of this information,  please contact kyle.mcloughlin@burlington.ca  Printed copies of this survey is available by contacting getinvolved@burlington.ca
