Anita Rocha, resident of Corinthian Court, thanked Public Works Director Nguyen for his quick
response and that of his department in clearing some weeds in the right-of-way. She then
mentioned to Council that there was a movement afoot to make changes to the median strip at the
entrance to of the neighborhood at Red Hill Circle and Lyford Drive. She said that there was a
plan called "Have Pride in Red Hill Circle" which envisioned removal of the bottlebrush trees
and the installation of a granite sign denoting "Red Hill Circle." She said that the proponents
also wanted to plant flowers on the median which she said was not feasible due to the lack of
irrigation in that location. Ms. Rocha said that she was opposed to the plan because it would have
a negative impact on the privacy of the neighborhood by drawing attention to it.
