Landau re-elected president of Norwalk Tree Alliance

Dan Landau has been re-elected to his fourth one-year term as president of the Norwalk Tree Alliance, a nonprofit association of volunteers committed to advancing Norwalk’s urban tree canopy and elevating public recognition of trees as a resource enriching the quality of life.
 
Also re-elected at the NTA’s annual meeting were vice president Bill Levin, secretary Judith Rudikoff and acting treasurer Christine Names. Added to the board of directors were Anatoly Sarser and Hal Alvord.
 
Landau’s report at the meeting covering 2015 activities noted that the NTA is working with the Third Taxing District and a $2,000 grant to plant 20 street trees in East Norwalk, oaks and maples, some up to 10 feet high.
 
Tree identification signs were installed at Cranbury Park and the Town Green, trees identified on Sheffield Island and signage is expected to be completed in the spring at Rosa Parks Arboretum behind Columbus School.
 
At the NTA’s Tree Farm in Fodor Farm, the tree inventory was expanded and additional fencing erected to prevent animals from attacking the growing trees.
 
For 2016, a tree planting is scheduled for Marvin School April 29 in a continuation of the NTA’s Arbor Day rotation of tree plantings at schools.
