[OMS_MANAGERS] downtown flowers

[Angi Ford]

Hi Katie,

We are very lucky in Sherwood as the City had decided to cover the flower
baskets once upon a time.  When they did some updates that included our lamp
posts they actually added a drip system through the lamp posts that the
flower baskets hang from so they are automatically watered.

If your community is considering any other upgrades like that it might be a
good idea to try and combine the two.

Thanks,
