Hello

My name is Adrien and I live at 3 Vine St. in Jersey City. At the end of our block is a grass area that belongs to the city. Last summer I put a little raised bed garden in and this year I would like to do much more. Last week I cleared a couple hundred pounds of garbage that had accumulated over the years in the brush. I raked out everything and cleaned up a lot of debris. People love to come down our road to walk their dogs and be in this little pocket of nature. I am reaching out to perhaps get some assistance in making this a beautiful little park in our neighborhood.

I have a few requests. Is it possible to have these red signs removed? Our road is very narrow and short and these signs are extremely unnecessary and an eye sore. Would the city be able to supply a trash bin for the end of the road…preferably on the right side of the end of the road by the fire hydrant. Also, could we have a water hose tap put in. There is a water meter box and a Fire hydrant side by side so should be very easy. Would be a huge help to have the vegetables, herbs, butterfly garden and sunflowers.

I was also curious about any donations of soil, plants, flower pots, paving stones and any other garden materials that the city perhaps can provide? I am fine doing all the labor with the help of some others in the neighborhood who are also very excited to clean up this street. Just curious if there are any resources the city can provide.

Thank you so much for your time
Adrien
