Landscape Plan - 13501 and 13503 Factory Lane

The most recent Weekly Activity Report from Metro Planning & Design Services has one case in District 17, a landscape plan for 13501 and 13503 Factory Lane (the address is incorrectly listed as 13605 Factory Lane in the report). This proposal, which has not yet been reviewed for compliance, calls for 46 street trees along with the preservation of about 1,500 square feet of existing tree canopy. Please use the link above for more information or to contact the case manager.

Guidance for Celebrating Thanksgiving

Many of us are beginning to make plans for the Thanksgiving holiday. The state has issued some guidance that can help us celebrate Thanksgiving responsibly. It includes examples of lower- or moderate-risk activities, such as attending a small outdoor sports event with safety precautions in place, as well as higher-risk activities to avoid like going shopping in crowded stores. If an in-person gathering is planned, the site also offers factors to consider such as the location, the duration, and the behavior of attendees prior to and during the gathering.
