Linda Vista

What can you do?

Two census blocks have been identified as the primary recipients of city street trees through this particular grant. If your residence is located between Genesee Ave, the 163, and Ulric St, you are eligible to have the city plant a street tree in front of your house. These trees will be watered on a regular schedule for three years after planting, and will be replaced by the city if they die before the grant ends in May 2028. 

We are gathering your input for future projects. It would be great to have more trees to provide shade, clean air, noise reduction, and overall curb appeal. We would like to know the locations YOU want to see trees in Linda Vista! 

Some spots are better for supporting the healthy growth of a tree than others! Tree roots require access to water even after the first three years. Sites that already have irrigation, like parks or the edge of well-maintained lawns, will have a higher chance of growing a healthy tree.

If you would like a city-watered street tree in front of your residence or in a community area in which you frequent, please fill out the google form on this webpage. We will compile your responses and send them to the City of San Diego so that Linda Vista residents can advocate for the locations of trees growing in their community.

Community members can help in different ways. 

• Opting in or out for a tree in front of their residence. (Scroll down and fill out the form on the City of San Diego’s “ready, Set, Grow” project webpage.
• Advocating for trees to be planted in areas where community members gather. Examples include schools, community centers, or religious buildings. 
• Reporting stressed or damaged trees through the Get it Done App.
