correct spot and type of tree for a particular street tree planting.
The Town of Stoneham has a program that allows the Town to plant shade trees
whithin the public right of way. There are times when planting in the grass strip
at the curb line is not feasable and a tree would need to be placed behind the
sidewalk.
