not look good, so Sunday afternoon looks like our best time for riverbank work. 12:30-1:00?</span></div>

Methodist Church on the west side of Marietta, then spreading and pinning down sheets of black plastic to solarize the area. There is on-street parking.</span></div>

Because I have not heard directly from council and our resolution has not gone through the entire reading process, I have not contacted the press about the plant rescue. Unless you hear otherwise from me, we will meet on Sunday in the 500 block of Fort Street.
There is a (rather steep) staircase to the riverbank across from the Methodists' parking lot, or the site can be accessed from a ramp on the Maple Street end of the block.</div>
