Our speaker was Maria Tori from the Mayor's Sustainability Office who spoke to us about “Working with the Department of Codes and Regs to Train Inspectors on the Managed Natural Landscapes Ordinance . She updated us on our mutual efforts to provide a training handbook and training sessions with the Code Inspectors in Codes and Regulations Department, who come out to check our native plant gardens if there are complaints about them. We wanted to streamline the process for them so they judge these gardens in accordance with the Managed Natural Landscapes Ordinance that we worked hard to pass through Metro Council in March, 2022.
Maria also let us know of a couple of other projects of interest that are ongoing at the Mayor's Office of Sustainability.
Maria did a splendid job of explanation and she got a LOT of questions from our membership. We had a very interesting and animated discussion.
President Carreiro also explained WOL's newly rolled out LAWN-TO-NATIVES COST-SHARE PROGRAM to the members present.
