Declaration of Pecuniary Interest
The Municipality of Clarington is situated within the traditional and treaty territory
of the Mississaugas and Chippewas (chip-uh-WUH) of the Anishinabeg (uh-
NISH-in-NAH-bek) known today as the Williams Treaties First Nations.
Our work on these lands acknowledges their resilience and their longstanding
contributions to the area now known as the Municipality of Clarington.
Subject — Executive Meeting
Discussed
1. — Gail Williamson
has asked if the horticulture will be planting the stone
boxes on the west side of the street. The BIA is in the process of replacing them with
new boxes, so no flowers this summer. Gail has been advised.
2. - Rick Ravary has advised the planter boxes for the railing will be cedar and approx.. 4
feet long/ 2 feet wide/ and 8-10 inches deep. 8 units. Boxes to be place on both sides of
the railing.
**Scott Story
to advise Rick Ravary
re: liners so
that he can start building the boxes. It is felt that it would be nice to have flowers
visible from the road and the sidewalk. Second option was 8 feet long and one
side. Garden Path to plant both hanging baskets and railing baskets.
