Committee to send species recommendations for freeway frontage planting project
Summary
Members discussed a roadside planting project near the freeway, agreed on species like honeylocust and elms for wider areas with culinary water, and asked staff to receive the committee's recommendations for review and scheduling.
The committee discussed a Parks & Trails project for planting along frontage near the freeway and agreed to provide species recommendations to city staff.
Laura Walker asked where the committee should send recommendations; members suggested species such as honeylocust, elms and other options compatible with culinary water and wide planting strips. The committee noted restrictions in narrow park strips and said recommendations should prioritize locations where trees can thrive without conflicting with utilities.
S6 and others agreed to compile a suggested species list and email it to staff for incorporation into the project timeline.
