Imperative additions to noxious weed list
 

Please make haste to amend the noxious weed list to include English Ivy, Japanese barbary, burning bush, as well as the proposed plants:

  • Two-horned trapa
  • Garlic mustard
  • Chinese yam
  • Autumn olive
  • Lesser celandine
  • Bicolor lespedeza
  • Amur honeysuckle.
  • Japanese honeysuckle
  • Common reed
  • Kudzu
  • Japanese knotweed
  • Siberian elm

Many of these have been an ongoing nuisance on our own property and/or surrounding parkland. Thank you!
