This dataset shows all city-managed trees, the majority of which are located on public property, lining streets, or in right of ways. The original inventory of these trees was conducted in the late 1990s/early 2000s by the Norfolk Master Gardeners. No official re-inventory has been conducted since then by City officials or ISA Certified Arborists, however, tree records in this dataset have been and are being updated over time by City Staff. This dataset will be updated in the Open Data Portal every weekday.

Recreation, Parks and Open Space’s Bureau of Parks and Urban Forestry plants hundreds of trees each year along city streets, within city parks, and on other city properties. This dataset gives pertinent tree species information, shows important geographic information about which parts of Norfolk are receiving trees in a given year, and historical data about planting date. City staff utilizes Microsoft excel to track tree planting information. This dataset will show where the City of Norfolk plants its trees on city owned properties. This data is updated annually.

This dataset contains data on Work Orders performed by field crews from the Department of Parks & Recreation, the Department of Transit, and the Environmental Storm Water Management and Streets & Bridges Divisions of the Department of Public Works. The data comes from the city’s implementation of CentralSquare’s Enterprise Asset Management platform, also known as Lucity. This dataset is updated daily on weekdays.
