Thank you for your interest and taking part in the City of Englewood’s EAB Subsidy Program. The City of Englewood encourages all residents to take pride in the appearance of their city. The health and welfare of the urban forest contributes immensely to the overall appearance of the community. Large, healthy trees are the backbone of the urban landscape. This first step in the multi-year program is intended to be proactive before the emerald ash borer (EAB) arrives in Englewood with the removal of ash trees that are in poor condition and chemical treatment to protect citizen’s ash trees that are in good health.
