[RP TownTalk] Lawn regulations

[Zach Feris]

Hi all,

 

Nina and Alan - responses are requested below please.lest they get lost in
the message.

 

Nina provides some intelligent and experienced perspective - the typical
American front yard is "an ecological mess of herbicides, pesticides, and
monoculture". Not to mention, a huge waste of time and money. I'm curious -
perhaps Alan can enlighten us - what provisions are made within Riverdale
Park's existing and proposed law which allow residents to pursue an
alternate model to growing turfgrass? I ask, since this point seems to be
one of Nina's main critiques.

 

Nina, your arguments are strong, but your response doesn't do much in the
way of directly offering up alternate plans for resolving the very societal
problems that this proposed amendment in code would attempt to rectify. I
may be missing your point - and in all likelihood I am - but can you please
clarify your suggestions? 

 

Very best,
Zach on Sheridan St
