Treesavers will hold a forum for City Council candidates on tree-related issues Thursday.
The event, moderated by former mayor Michael Feinstein, will take place from 6:30 to 9 p.m. at the Ken Edwards Center, 1527 Fourth Street, in Santa Monica.
Candidates will field questions from both the public and from each other.
Treesavers, which led a highly-publicized fight to save Downtown ficus trees is currently lobbying the City Council to form a Tree Commission.
The forum is free and there is free parking on site.
