2018 Spring/Summer “We started with thinking we’d just add a planting area,
then maybe a rock garden. Then we said maybe we need
to have someone who knows what they’re doing,” said Liz
Genovese, Co-Chair of the Memory Garden Committee.
Genovese and Platt connected with landscape designer
Tony Siebenaler-Ransom from Studio Tuske and Ben
Erickson of b.e. landscape designs.
Together, Erickson, Siebenaler-Ransom and the Garden
Council hope to receive approval from the City Council
and Parks & Recreation Department to proceed with
the project in early 2018. “I’m working with them; this
is their project,” emphasized City Horticulturist Tim
Zimmerman. “I want them to know they’re in control,
but they do have my support.”
