With rain-fed weeds as high as an elephant’s eye on the Sloat Boulevard median, our Bureau of Urban Forestry gardener, Lashanta Jordan, works her mower magic. The trim now makes it easier for motorists to see pedestrians crossing the street. Our street and sidewalk crews, including the mechanical sweepers, continue to keep our public ways clean and safe. The Bureau of Urban Forestry staff has been responding to tree emergencies and mowing medians, such as those on Dolores Street and Sloat Boulevard, to promote a safe and beautiful environment.
