City Planner Anderson stated the discussion in the Council Work Session involved the idea that <br />the City would serve as a repository of information. There are many organizations that can give <br />specific advice and ideas. The City would help provide links to these places, and a summary of <br />information. There will not be a dedicated staff person to teach residents how to do this. He said <br />there was a brief discussion that there are likely some areas in our parks that could be evaluated to <br />see if the maintained areas could be reduced in size. These areas could be good candidates for this <br />type of landscaping. The Parks and Recreation Commission would explore this idea. <br />Board Member Hiatt noted the rain garden that has been created in Alpine Park is a good example. <br />City Planner Anderson advised there is no milkweed in that garden presently, but it could be <br />introduced. The demonstration project in Brookfield will have milkweed. It may make sense to <br />introduce milkweed to other areas with this type of landscaping. <br />
