The City Council responded to our Ward One Aldermen (Adella Gray and Brenda Thiel) by agreeing to visit the old Aspen Ridge site as a group on Monday afternoon. And they agreed to delay the final decision on the project until the Town Branch Neighborhood Association can meet with the developers again, most likely at 6 p.m. Thursday, May 8.

Earth Day Celebration at World Peace Wetland Prairie on Sunday afternoon among several events coming up
Keep the Water Where it Falls, Maintain the Habitat — Earth Day at World Peace Wetland Prairie
Fayetteville's Town Branch Neighborhood and the OMNI Center for Peace, Justice and Ecology have announced that the Fourth Earth Day Celebration since the Founding of World Peace Wetland Prairie, a city-owned nature park and natural rain garden in south Fayetteville, is planned for 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday, April 20, 2008.
Nature walks will be led by local biologists and nature enthusiasts, highlighting Arkansas native plants and describing the value of natural wetland and its function for stormwater abatement and cleansing in an urban environment.
Information from founding organizations and area environmental groups will be offered as well as an opportunity to participate in planting trees, native grass and flowering plants and in helping remove Japanese honeysuckle, fescue and other non-native invasive species. Some small trees and possibly some flowering plants will be available for adoption.
Musicians and poets are invited to perform with acoustic instruments; and environmentally friendly songs and poems are especially welcome. Activities suitable for small children will be offered.
Bird-watchers are encouraged to come at dawn or stay until dark. Bring a camera or video recorder. Nice photo opportunities are likely.
The theme for 2008 is "Keep the Water Where it Falls, Maintain the Habitat."
