<br />MEMO <br /> <br />DATE: April 6, 2001 <br /> <br />TO : Honorable Mayor and Council <br /> <br />FROM: Jim March <br /> <br />RE : Community Gardens <br /> <br />............................................................................ <br /> <br />Included in your packet is a proposal received from Goetz Landscaping in regards to <br />creating community garden plots behind the current City Hall. There would be some <br />ways to reduce costs based on the proposal submitted. We could reduce the number of <br />plots the first year and/or we could have the residents spread their own black dirt and just <br />have the seventeen (17) truckloads of dirt dumped in a pile. This would save a lot of <br />labor cost. <br /> <br />In future years, based on the number of plots and anticipated rental charges the fees <br />generated from usage should more than cover the cost of annual tilling. It will take a <br />significant effort to remove the sod and till the land the first year to make the plots <br />suitable for gardens. <br />
