Shade Tree Commission
The Shade Tree Commission meets the first Wednesday of every month at Borough Hall at 7:00 pm.
The Palmyra Shade Tree Commission members are volunteers appointed by the mayor to maintain the municipal shade trees in the Borough. The municipal shade trees save homeowner's energy, improve the value of homes, and add to the beauty of the community. The trees closest to the street are most likely Palmyra's shade trees, and if homeowners think that the trees need to be trimmed or present a hazard, they should contact the Shade Tree Commission.
If you have a tree concern/complaint or request, please fill out a Tree Request/Complaint Form.
The form can be picked up at Borough Hall 856-829-6100.

Tree requests/complaints received after the meeting on the first Wednesday of the month will be assigned to a commissioner at the next meeting. The request/complaint will be addressed during the month and a report will be given at the next meeting. A response or action will be decided at that time. Please be patient. You are always welcome to attend the monthly meeting where there is an opportunity for the public to address the commission. Benefits of Shade Trees
