I also support new actions for the Park Board to help with Community 
Gardens.  I have served On CUE (Committee on Urban Environment) and on the 
NRP-ETC Committee of Phillips which has spent years on the community 
gardens topics.  The issue that raises it's ugly head no matter who you 
talk to is LIABILITY.
If people can figure that issue out we might be able to resolve this 
dilemma because I agree - everyone should have a garden if they so choose 
and we have lots of parkland that people assume we will take care of anyway 
so why not have a Green Spaces policy that covers a variety of settings.
This has been one of those 25 years in the making government policies - so 
wouldn't you say, "it's about damned time?" (kind of like bottle deposits 
on pop bottles)
