The Hamtown Pushmower Posse Manifesto

2005-04-03T10:01:00.000-07:00

We, the members of the Hamtown Pushmower Posse, are guided by the following beliefs:

We believe in the power and principle of non-polluting lawn care and landscaping methods.

We believe that the use of gasoline-powered lawn care and landscaping equipment is incompatible with the needs of a compact, urban city such as Hamtramck.

We believe the air, noise and ground pollution produced by gasoline-powered lawn care and landscaping methods to be detrimental to the health and well-being of our community, in particular, our seniors, young people, and workers with non-traditional sleep schedules.

We believe that non-polluting lawn care and landscaping methods best serve the unique needs of Hamtramck and contribute to harmony between its citizens.

We believe that replacing gasoline-powered lawn care and landscaping methods with effective non-polluting lawn care and landscaping methods will markedly improve the quality of life in Hamtramck.

We believe in serving and espousing the principles of non-polluting lawn care and landscaping through example, action and education.

We believe that neighbors who practice non-polluting lawn care and landscaping methods make better neighbors.

We believe in striving, at all times and in all ways, to be better neighbors.
