Notes and Observations
1. Land is suitable for garden area.
2. Storm Drain in the corner area lends itself to a rain garden.
3. Garden area is large and could be developed in phases.
4. Consideration for fencing should be given to existing fencedesign and structure if funds would permit.
5. Larger gardens plots would be available for class rooms.
6. Enough area that nothing is crowded.
5. Any design would allow for several different focal points in layout.
