We're doing this to provide residents or groups an opportunity to use tools they might not otherwise have for beautification. It's a large, 9-foot trailer that will have everything from a rake or a shovel to a hedger and a lawnmower.

It's a place we use as a frontline to communicate with our residents. Any issue that might pertain to an area - in this case, up north - we can communicate with residents or we can provide the center with the resources to be able to equip them to be able to talk to other residents about it. It's a place where they can drop in. Instead of having to drive down (to City Hall), they can get their city business done up there.

We encourage Phoenix to be more active. They need to do that. With these, we will have acquired over 3,200 bait stations since May of 2003. We'll probably run out within a week. Our program is coming to a close after these 350 are gone.

We used to call them mini town halls. We're kind of getting away from that now, but it gives you an understanding of what services we offer there.
