This particular property is absentee landlord owned, so there is no "homeowner". The property owner is responsible for the upkeep of strip. As a practical move, the city could allow the strip to be paved; there is a house, on Willow St., with no strip, i.e., an appropriate sized sidewalk.
I don't have a problem with a curbside garden; however, curbside gardens don't work, where there is curbside parking, as is the case here.
Unkempt curb strips make a neighborhood look like a ghetto, they attract trash, dog poop and indicate to the casual observer, the visitor, and the residents that the public realm is not cared for or about - which is really bad. In a run down, disorderly town, like New Have, a little order goes a long way; the bar here is set so low, in terms of aesthetics and public behaviour, that a little attention to detail makes a huge impression on the public psyche.
