Description
Tree canopy credits; forest stands. Requires that localities that have adopted a tree canopy ordinance provide tree cover credit for high conservation value forest stands if a site developer provides a stand assessment before creating development plans. The bill also allows localities with such ordinances to provide additional credit if the pre-identified forest stands achieve environmental, ecological, and wildlife conservation objectives of the locality.
