She requested that the Commission discuss the <br />recommendations for Less Mow May and future pollinator protection strategies. <br />Me <br />mber Mueller indicated she loved this approach and thought it was common <br />sense and going in the direction she wanted to see. She thought this was <br />approachable and going in the right direction. She noted this will also save people <br />money in the long run. <br />Member Fergus wondered if the word “mow” should be left out of the title as the <br />City is rebranding this. He thought it would help people be less confused about this. <br />Ms <br />. Bakken thought that was a perfect point because there is much more to it than <br />just mowing. She noted that the City has a Less Mow May landing page online and <br />thought this was a natural place to put all the recommendations. There are already <br />links to the Watershed District grant programs for many of these initiatives. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />Qbhf!44!pg!264 <br /> <br />
