Does ComEd plant trees?
Through ComEd’s Cooperative Tree Replacement Program, municipalities may be able to receive partial reimbursement for replacement of certain trees growing on municipal property. Communities that include the tree replacement provision in their franchise agreement with ComEd may be able to participate in this program. This is a joint venture between ComEd and the municipality to remove existing municipal trees that require periodic line clearance trimming, and replace them with low growing species that will not require periodic pruning to maintain safe conductor clearance.
