   Jim Clark, consultant for HortScience, Inc., in Pleasanton, Calif., agrees.
   
   "Didn't someone once say that there's no such thing as bad publicity?If that's the case, then the biggest benefit of community forestry programs - reaching out to non-profit organizations and individual citizens - is to raise awareness of trees and tree care," says Clark.
   ...
   "This in turn increases the demand for proper tree selection, care and maintenance," Clark suggests."Community involvement increases demand for trained professionals."
   
   That connection between awareness and community implementation of tree ordinances has increased demand for arboricultural consulting.
   
   "Indeed, I think we can argue that tree ordinances are one of the driving forces behind the growth of arboricultural consulting.In California, ordinances came about not because arborists wanted them but because the public and elected leaders demanded them," says Clark.
   ...
   "In my experience, however, most community forestry grants are too small to involve professionals," notes Clark.
