• The Greenspace Commission had another look at Madison's Tree Ordinance in their Tuesday, Oct. 20 meeting in a joint effort with the Madison City Council to streamline the ordinance and allow for healthy tree maintenance while maintaining good tree cover. The commission also discussed The Ricketts Environmental Excellence  program, which helps fund the purchase and planting of trees on private property in the City of Madison. The 8-year-old program has planted over 100 trees.
