Tree Inventory and Community Forest Mapping

The Town of Groton invites residents to participate in a community survey about your community trees and greenspaces. Participation is voluntary and by participating you provide consent to include your response in a summarized set of findings. Your response is anonymous and no information will be collected to relate your answers to you. We anticipate you can complete the questionnaire in less than five minutes, however, there is no time limit to complete. The following definitions may help you respond: Community refers to the Town of Groton; Neighborhood refers to the location you live in; Public spaces include parks, Town-owned properties, areas along roads and sidewalks; Resident refers to a person who lives in the Town of Groton. Thank you in advance for participating. Your response will provide valuable information to better manage the tree population in the Town of Groton.
