The Emerald Ash Borer is destroying ash trees across the area, and as they die, they become brittle, unstable and a serious safety hazard.
So we created the Private Ash Tree Removal Assessment Program. It's a financing option to help homeowners pay for the upfront costs of ash tree removal.
The city pays upfront costs of the removal. Then that cost is added to your property taxes, just like a road repair project. Plus, the bond interest rates set for that year.
Rental properties, homeowner associations, and commercial properties are not eligible because the cost is tied to individual property taxes.
