CITY COUNCIL MEETING 6 September 10, 1985 The recommendation of the Director of Planning was to retain the median island planting strip on East "J" Street and plant it in accordance with current policy.

MS (Scott/Malcolm) to hold this item over until an assessment district on East "J" Street is formed.
