  • User Manual Megagarden (Hydroponic System)
    USER MANUAL MEGAGARDEN (HYDROPONIC SYSTEM) MGSYS & MGSYSNM OVERVIEW Congratulations on the purchase of an Active Aqua MegaGarden system. The MegaGarden is a high performance hydroponic growing system designed with simplicity in mind. Anyone from the novice to the professional green thumb can use the MegaGarden with ease and get fantastic results. This exclusive Hydrofarm design is compact yet very productive, utilizing automated flood & drain (ebb & flow) technology, and uses less water to grow more produce. Crops grown in the MegaGarden experience dramatic growth rates as the roots are directly fed with oxygenated nutrient solution, versus conventional soil gardening which requires the roots to search for food sources in the dirt. With the assistance of a Hydrofarm grow light system such as a high intensity grow light, or a T5 fluorescent, the MegaGarden can provide year-round production for all your gardening desires! HYDROPONICS: SIMPLE, QUICK, AND EASY Hydroponics is simply a more efficient way to provide nutrition and water to your plants. In a soil garden, nutrients and water are randomly scattered about throughout the medium, and plants have to expend a lot of energy growing roots to find them. In a hydroponic garden, the nutrients and water are delivered directly to your plants’ roots by pumping solution on timed cycles. Plants grow quicker and may be harvested sooner because they are absorbing nutrition at a faster rate. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Overview 2 Hydroponics: Simple, Quick, and Easy 2 Assembly 5 View tube Installation 5

  • Historic Preservation Commission Staff Report
    HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT APPLICATION: DPR2019-0017 AGENDA ITEM: AR-5 PREPARED BY: John Mayer MEETING DATE: June 26, 2019 Senior Planner TITLE: Determination of Historic Significance 615 Cloverleaf Drive APPLICANT: Mark Houston Associates, Inc. 517 South Myrtle Monrovia, CA 91016 REQUEST: Determine the historic significance of a residential building built within the historic period (50 years or older) that is proposed for total demolition. BACKGROUND: The applicant is preparing plans for a development that would involve the demolition of a house at 615 Cloverleaf Drive. Since the house was built over 50 years ago (1947), the proposed demolition requires that the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) first make a determination about the building’s potential significance as an historic resource. On May 21, 2019, Mark Houston, on behalf of the owner submitted a written request to be exempt from the demolition review requirements due to the homes’ perceived obvious lack of historic significance. Pursuant to Monrovia Municipal Code (MMC) Section 17.10.050(B)(3), the HPC may either reject the request or require additional documentation. Staff determined that the applicant’s documentation is sufficient to assess the property’s lack of historic significance. For the exemption request, the applicant submitted materials prepared by Jeanette McKenna who conducted some research on the property including: building characteristics, permit history, ownership history including owner occupations, and a list of structural alterations. McKenna also included photographs of the home’s current conditions. Based on the information collected, Staff prepared the property’s Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR 523A) survey form which assigned a status code of 6L.
