In the last two decades, Tree Watch has evolved away from its original model of a large committee of many neighbors (15 to 18) that met monthly to discuss its work and plan its activities, which for several years included a popular and lucrative fundraiser called Treehugger's Ball. Today and for many years now, Tree Watch is (like Beautification, Sidewalks, and possibly other IPNA committees) basically one committee chair who does the planning, plus a small (4 to 6) group of especially dedicated neighbors who attend and support every single activity, plus a larger, shifting group of neighbors who might attend, say, one project or activity in a year. The bulk of the actual work is done by Trees Atlanta staff and volunteers. Comment, if any? Should it be different? Could it be? How might all of this affect succession planning for the current committee chair? If you have ideas on the organization of the committee itself, please share them.
