The new Botanic Garden Production Facility is located within the
area generally known as D. C. Village. Although the 25 acre site has a
chain link fence surrounding it, the entrance roadways are unguarded.

In order to protect the investment represented by the buildings,
materials and equipment stored there, as well as the employees at and
visitors to the Production Facility, it is requested that funds in the
amount of $80,000 be appropriated to install a security gate across the
entrance roadway.
This gate would consist of an automatic
electrically-operated gate with electronic access cards. Additionally,
a small remote camera and intercom will be installed in order to permit
Botanic Garden employees to admit authorized visitors, staff and
deliveries to the facility.
