TreePower Residential Program
TreePower, a partnership between Anaheim Public Utilities and City of Anaheim Community Services, offers two programs to provide trees to Anaheim single family residents.* In addition, we offer tree rebates for homeowners interested in purchasing their own.
Shade trees that are properly planted can help cut the costs of air conditioning as well as beautify residences and the community as a whole.
*Must be Anaheim electric customer
