Highland Height’s 2026 Arbor Day was a Success!
The Highland Heights Tree Commission would like to thank everyone who came out on April 25th to take part in Arbor Day. The Tree Commission purchased a variety of trees to give out to residents of Highland Heights during this event.
Mayor Greg Meyers was on hand to present the Arbor Day Proclamation. Additionally, a tree was dedicated to Steve Crawford for his more than 30 years of service to the City which includes Chairperson of the Planning and Zoning Commission and as a liaison to Northern Kentucky University. His tenure has facilitated significant economic growth in Highland Heights.
If any of our Highland Heights neighbors would like attend Tree Commission meetings, they are on the 4th Monday of every month at 7:00 p.m. in the City Building Community Room.
