It is the intent of the Village Board of Trustees to establish a Tree
Advisory Board (TAB) and to enact codes to encourage beautification, protection,
air cooling and purification, noise abatement, property value enhancement
and other attributes of trees as they pertain to the quality of life in the
Village of East Rockaway.
As of the effective date of this chapter, the Tree Advisory Board (TAB)
shall be established. Members of the Tree Advisory Board shall serve as volunteers
and shall not be compensated for their services.
The Tree Advisory Board shall have at least nine members, including
the Chairperson.
There shall be eight tree districts within the corporate boundaries
of the Village of East Rockaway; said tree districts shall coincide with the
eight election districts.
