The term of the three persons to be appointed by the Mayor shall be
two years, except that the term of one of the members appointed to the first

Members of the Board shall serve in a voluntary capacity without compensation.
It shall be the responsibility of the City Tree Board to study, investigate,

for the care, preservation, pruning, planting, replanting, removal, or disposition,
of trees and shrubs in parks, along streets and in other public areas. Such
plan will be presented annually to the City Common Council and upon their
acceptance and approval shall constitute the official comprehensive city tree
plan for the City of Hornell, New York. The Board, when requested by the City
Common Council, shall consider, investigate, make findings, report and recommend
upon any special matter of question coming within the scope of its work.
