I think operator is fine for someone who takes care (and responsibility) for urban trees, as is for forests in rural areas. Would "maintainer" be more precise? "maintenance" has only values like "gritting" and "salting", "maintainer" is rarely used so far (btw. all but a handful on a french motorway A16) It also doesn't seem we would have to distinguish from other uses of operator tags on trees, there's no ambiguity.


cheers,
