volunteers.
Dan's TV is still not done; this area will need attention soon.
Regarding the Paradisos area, Dimmick stated, with the help Of
student volunteers, she should be able to f'mish this by Friday.
Discussion -- Visitors Center/State of Alaska Plant List and Plan
Dimmick distributed a plant list and plan for the Visitors Center. The Committee
discussed the plan and other generalities regarding this area and its potential for plant
growth. The Committee made several comments and small changes to the overall plan,
including:
· Avoid bare topsoil in areas as this promotes the growth of
chickweed.
· - If Parks and Recreation can manage sod cutting, the Committee
can ensure it is done properly and in areas needed. Additionally, if
the sod is cut by P&R, money will be saved on the contractor's fee.
The Visitors Center flowerbeds will be perennial beds. The
Committee spoke briefly regarding various native flowers to be
used in the beds including: dwarf dogwood, starflowers, and irises
· Weed cloth should be used in the new beds. Brown and Dimmick
both offered to donate weed cloth from their personal supplies.
· Dimmick will approach the contractor about getting a bench.
· Director Frates stated his crew would dig out the existing gravel
from the side of the building. Upon replacing the gravel with
topsoil, rose bushes could be planted in this area. Frates drew a
rudimentary drawing on the chalkboard to help illustrate the area
in which he could envision new rose bushes. The Committee was
in agreement with the idea and possible placement of new bushes.
