Title 12.24 states that adjacent property owners are responsible for reasonable maintenance of the the tree lawn, including prohibited species removal. Poison Ivy falls under the prohibited species. Generally, we will not make a special trip to eradicate poison ivy, however if we are in the area working we will address it. I'll give it a once over to see if there's anything else that needs done, and we'll get it on our schedule, otherwise it will fall on the adjacent property owner via Bloomington Municipal Code

Tim I had a complaint about this and have ticketed the HOA administrator but did not realize until now that it is a city tree. Thank you!
