History of "Landscaped Island” on Clematis Crescent

Earlier this year a petition waa received, from the residents who
live on Clematis Crescent, about the condition of the landscaping and
maintenance of the ‘island ia front of theic homes.

The Parks & Recreation Department was not aware that thie 'igland"
existed and it was not on the list of areas to be looked after. |
Therefore, a request was made of che Engineering Department aa to how.
the "igland’* came into heing.

The report from the Deputy Engineer indicated that the developer did
not submit a landscape plan to the Parka & Recreation Department for
approval. Therefore, the Department had no knowledge of the
existence of such a Landscaped "island".

However, it is reasonable for the residents to expect a certain level
of maintenance.
