An East Vancouver resident says she's concerned about garbage and needles in overgrown grass in Falaise Park — part of a new pilot program implemented by the Vancouver Park Board to create meadows to attract more bees. She says the Vancouver Park Board's pilot program, which calls for less grass-cutting and natural landscapes, is to blame. Falaise Park in East Vancouver is part of the park board pilot aimed at creating natural landscapes and attracting more bees and butterflies. The Vancouver Park Board could not be immediately reached for comment. Park Board staff is expected to eventually compile a report with data, outcomes and observations from the meadows pilot.
