4. Limitations
   Trees must be planted equidistant from curb and sidewalks, typically at least 35-feet from other parkway trees; at least 10-feet from a driveway or street light; at least 45-feet from an intersection to ensure unobstructed sight lines; and at least 5-feet from manholes, fire hydrants, and b-boxes. Note: Trees cannot be planted in the same spot as a recently removed parkway tree due to old root mass. Ten species of trees are currently available on a first come, first serve basis. All trees have limited quantities.
