Clean up at Echo Lake Park in response to citizen nudge

The Shoreline Parks department quickly responded when a resident took a photo of a badly overgrown flower bed in Echo Lake Park and sent it in through See-Click-Fix.

The City responded immediately, weeding and covering the ground with mulch.

Weeds grow so quickly in this spring weather.

ELNA volunteers usually take care of these beds but they are focusing on Shoreline Park, around the lake itself, and the Densmore Pathway.
