The landscape area was <br /> not restored due to irrigation lines in the landscape area. <br /> Washington Federal had their landscape company look completing the area. Currently, there is a 1-foot vertical cut <br /> beyond the sidewalk. It was recommended by the landscape company to put a rock retaining wall around the sidewalk to <br /> finish the landscaping. The rock retaining wall was recommended because the landscape company did not want to get <br /> involved with the irrigation system in the landscape area. The quote was $750.00. I am not sure if this is the portion that <br /> they request we pay, or if it is the total cost. <br /> I told Marla that the only solution I would propose is a 2:1 back slope and place beauty bark. Although, this solution would <br /> cut into the roots of existing vegetation and interrupted with the Washington Federal irrigation system in the landscape <br /> area. There is quite a bit of encroachment into the Right-of-Way, outside of the recorded parking lot encroachment. <br /> Steve Lange <br /> 1 <br />
