The Borough of Fountain Hill has been designated a 2014 Tree City USA by the Arbor Day Foundation for its committment to effective forest management.

The program requirements were for a location to have a tree board or department, a tree care ordinance, an annual community forestry budget of at least two dollars per capita, and an Arbor Day observance and proclamation.

The program is sponsored by the Arbor Day Foundation, in partnership with the U.S. Forestry Service and the National Association of State Foresters. For more information, visit arborday.org/TreeCityUSA.
