Plant a shade tree at a resident's own home on the Roundbunch Rd corridor, home 2, resident home, Roundbunch Rd (FM 1442) corridor, Bridge City, TX 77611 (2026-07-24)

This home has no shade tree, leaving the house exposed to full Gulf Coast summer sun and driving up cooling costs for a household that may not run air conditioning through the hottest part of the day. Standard: SDG 11.7 green public space + i-Tree canopy assessment protocol. Proof: homeowner/resident-permission record + GPS waypoint + before/after photos + species/distance record Method (SDG 11.7 green public space + i-Tree canopy assessment protocol.): 1. 1. Walk the resident's own yard with the resident and select a planting spot at least 15 feet from the home's foundation and clear of overhead/underground utilities; photograph the bare spot before planting. 2. 2. Dig the planting hole by hand at the correct depth for the root ball and set the tree so the root flare sits at grade. 3. 3. Backfill, water in thoroughly, and mulch 2 to 3 inches deep, holding mulch off the trunk, and form a watering basin. 4. 4. Photograph the finished planting from the matching before vantage and record the species and planting distance from the home. Done when: homeowner/resident-permission record + GPS waypoint + before/after photos + species/distance record

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: i-Tree canopy / street-tree inventory

Bring

• GPS phone
• DBH tape or measuring tape
• tree ID reference
• camera
• hi-vis vest

Steps

1. 1. Walk the corridor; record a GPS waypoint at each tree.
2. 2. Photograph each surveyed tree.
3. 3. Record species (best estimate), condition class (good/fair/poor/dead), and DBH (diameter at breast height).
4. 4. Count vacant planting sites.
5. 5. Enter the per-tree records, vacant-site count, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Dead or hazardous tree observed -> flag for the responsible agency (no removal by surveyor).
• High vacant-site count -> recommend a planting plan for the corridor.

What counts as done

• Per-tree species + condition + DBH recorded
• Vacant planting sites counted
• GPS waypoint per tree
• Photo per surveyed tree

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
