The other major subject of discussion was the beautification of the barricades at Rosedale and McPherson, Westminster and Kingsbury. Andy Cross has designed possible wooden planters that could contain ornamental grasses, similar to what is at Four Corners. Andy hopes to be able to do a barricade a year.
