Maintenance and Monitoring
Public Group active 2 years, 1 month agoThis committee will be in charge of securing and maintaining the garden and any garden assets (tools, etc.) This committee will look into fencing options to secure the gardens area and will maintain fencing. This committee will also be in charge of monitoring the garden plots to make sure they are being kept up according to garden rules. If there is a violation of rules or other dispute about plot use, committee members will contact the gardener(s) to work out a resolution to the issue. If unable to resolve the problem “one-on-oneâ€, the chairperson of this committee will take the problem to the Executive Committee for resolution. This committee will need to prepare a budget each year and submit it for funding of its initiatives.
