The Portland Urban Forest Plan provides direction for the protection, care, and expansion of Portland's urban forest. It also includes actions to enhance and improve our City's urban forest now, and for the future.

- Provides common goals and a unified vision for City staff and community members
- Documents community priorities to direct City decisions about funding, management, policies, and programs
- Presents an implementation strategy to address current challenges
- Requires reporting to ensure transparency and accountability and demonstrate progress toward Plan goals
