Ukiah public workshop explores downtown renovations, preservation of pistache trees

THE CITY OF UKIAH HELD a public workshop Thursday evening to discuss a potential improvement project for downtown that has been opposed by several residents because it could lead to the removal of some Chinese pistache trees, which turn vibrant shades of red and orange. 

In December 2024, the city of Ukiah received a Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant in the amount of $228,400 to fund the School Street Multimodal Transportation Corridor Study. The study will analyze pathways along the School Street corridor from Clay Street to Henry Street.
