Staff will plan on bringing a discussion topic to the Environmental Policy Board in the near future. In the meantime, attached to the Weekly Update are resources that outline our current requirements. It is noted that there is not a requirement for sod, and that projects may seed with a variety of vegetation types. The City holds a surety to ensure that vegetation is established, which has been a necessary tool in a number of circumstances.
