[Steppes] Flagpole Hill recognized as rare Prairie Remnant

[Brent Ryder]

Does this mean they will put more money into the site and fix the picnic
tables? :D

Has everyone written their letters to the city asking that they be fixed?

Can someone post to whom those letters should be addressed and to where they
should be sent?

Inquiring minds want to know :)
