The Emerald City Task Force was convened to provide the City of Seattle with advice on the subject of development and how it interfaces with tree preservation and efforts to improve the urban forest. The ten members of the group represented the development, architecture, landscape architecture, home-building, and tree care professions. The group met five times in the summer of 2007 and issued a letter of recommendations in December 2007.
