Plants in rooftop meadow gardenA proposal for adding green roof elements to the mid rise roof and replacing our existing patio area is being brought to the GMM on March 21, 2013 for a decision.
In January and February 2013 the Environment Committee conducted a survey to get input from members on current and future use of the rooftop and green roof options. This was a follow up to an initial survey done in 2010 when the committee started working on plans.
A total of 87 members responded and almost everyone plans to use the rooftop in the future. Over half of the members who responded expressed interest in gardening on the rooftop.
Detailed survey responses are available here: Survey Results Final
Responses are still coming in. As of February 3rd over 70 people had returned surveys.
The majority of those people had used the penthouse roof top more than 10 times. 36 people are willing to help out with watering the gardens, and 34 would be interested in having a garden plot.
Thanks everyone, and thanks to Catherine Young for putting the results together. Here are the links to the details:
