What is the process to dedicate a tree or bench in a Glendale park?
Trees: The process to dedicate a tree in a Glendale park is managed by the Public Works Department in partnership with Glendale Beautiful, a local nonprofit. To learn more or donate, please visit GlendaleBeautiful.org/arbor-day. Glendale Beautiful coordinates with Public Works and Community Services & Parks for a City contractor to procure and plant the donated tree. Trees are typically planted once annually as part of the City’s reforestation program; species and location are subject to department approval.
Benches: Memorial bench dedications are managed by the Community Services & Parks Department. To begin, submit an application via the CSP Policies and Procedures page. Once staff verifies the application meets policy requirements, a fee is required to cover the cost of the item, installation, and a commemorative plaque.
