Description
6 planters at the end of Waldo and Alan Terrace have been abandoned for over a year.
They are not draining properly and fill with water killing whatever plants are in there and breeding mosquitos in the summer.
It would be great to keep the planters, just fix their drainage and fill with hardly low maintenance flowers.

—it’s nothing but a parking lot now and a place where people drop unwanted trash.

Understood, but the old director left and there was a long period of time before a new person was hired. Now that Innovation exists under a new Department and a new director dedicated to open space. These spaces are different that our regular parks, which get regular attention.
We will be creating a process and policy so that these spaces never fall through the cracks again.
Thank you for your patience.

DPW - Buildings & Streets went and drilled holes in the planters for drainage as soon as we asked them for help.
These pop-up parks are under the Division of Innovation in the Department of Infrastructure. Right now our Division Director, Dawn Giambalvo, is looking to reach out to the Waldo community garden to see if the City can partner up with them for maintaining the park and reporting issues.
