Mayor recommends horticulturist/master gardener

A committee of Walhalla council members approved Mayor Danny Edwards’ recommendation for the city to hire a part time, temporary worker to care for the trees, the flowers, and the shrubbery that’ll be planted as part of Streetscape.  The committee’s recommendation is subject to a vote by the full city council.  The idea, as explained by Edwards last night, is for the city to allocate between $800 and $1,000 of accommodations tax funds each month between now and June 30 for worker that the mayor envisions as a horticulturist/master gardener.
