Removal of Front Fence - Updating our Landscaping

The project we have in mind involves the removal of the wooden fence from the property except at the Agatite turnaround point and along the river. The fence is in bad shape, looks ugly and needs expensive repair.

In addition we will remove most of the old and ugly bushes in the front lawn and replace them with seamless grass. We will also repair the grass along the Agatite Avenue sidewalk.

The trees along the river will be slightly trimmed to allow for more sunlight and not to drape over the parking lot too much (mulberries stain cars, dragged under our shoes and on our carpet).

The rear area of the building along the parking lot and under the D and E tier balconies will be re-edged and filled with gravel. The flowers and existing grass will be left as is.

The plants on the East side of the building will be left as is but the bushes along the forward 1/3 of the East side of the building will be trimmed (see sample photo rendering).

The project will be performed by Italian Gardens and the cost will be $1,650. No special Assessment is required.
