Soil conservation affects us all. Soil helps to absorb rainwater as it runs over the land, and it helps to filter water as it percolates through. It protects ecosystems by providing a home for many plants and animals, and it helps to store carbon in the environment. As you consider the options for the ground in front of our new city hall, please keep in mind that the area is subject to serious erosion. While grass can provide some protection from erosion, the best option would be to have many native plants in the soil. The roots of the plants help hold the soil in place so that it doesn't wash away. I'm asking you to make the decision to protect our soil and prevent erosion. Thank you.
