These planters have never been planted. They do not have any irrigation, so everything will die. Will check with contractor about doing some watering and cost. Sincerely, Gail Carlson, Public Works

Thank you. Also, the planter is being used as an ashtray. There are often scores of butts directly under the "smoke free zone" sign posted above. If smoking is going to be permitted here, then might as well put in ashtrays or the butts will end up on the ground or in the planter. The folks at the adjacent bar love their smokes.

This area has never been a City maintained area. The shopping center was going to maintain. There is no irrigation system in this area, so it would have to be hand watered and the City is not equipped for this. Sincerely, Gail Carlson, Public Works
