SPOTLIGHT ISSUE
Green Infrastructure Municipal Handbook
By US Environmental Protection Agency

The EPA is developing The Municipal Handbook to help local officials  
implement green infrastructure in their communities. The handbook  
covers issues such as financing, operation and maintenance,  
incentives, designs, codes and ordinances, and a variety of other  
subjects. The handbook chapters are intended to serve as "how to"  
manuals on these topics, written primarily from the standpoint of  
municipal implementation.

California ReLeaf has released a preliminary report titled, "Survey of  
State Funding Trends." In 2006, they were awarded a grant to contact  
all of the State Urban Forestry Coordinators to inquire about how  
their programs are funded, with the ultimate goal of identifying a  
handful of permanent, long-term funding source. The report was  
presented at the ACT annual meeting in Atlanta.
