Fifteen 4’ x 8’ garden plots are available for a summer rental fee of $30. Fees are due May 5, 2026.

Garden plot registration runs through May 4. If there are more than fifteen registrants, a lottery drawing will be held on May 5. One plot per household.

To reserve a plot, individuals may complete the application below, or register via the online portal.

PLEASE NOTE: ALL Online Registrations will go straight to a Waitlist to allow staff to assign members to available plots. Members will be notified by email and able to pay their plot fee once they receive their assignment.

Applications for City boards and commissions accepted through Oct. 23

Community members interested in serving on any of the City’s boards and commissions should apply by Oct. 23. Qualified electors may submit their name or the name of another for consideration.

“We accept applications for all of the City’s boards and commissions throughout the year,” said City Manager Nancy Ridley. “However, each fall, we encourage community members to apply so the Appointments Committee has the information of potential candidates readily available to review if partial-term vacancies occur.”

Applications are available online or at the City Manager’s Office, located at 320 W. Broadway. For more information, visit www.mt-pleasant.org.
