Residents at this location have not mowed their grass yet this Spring and it is definitely over the 8 inch length. It is unsightly and sticks out since every other household on the street keeps their grass trimmed.
Both Japanese knotweed and tree-of-heaven are growing together on the *east* lot-line of this property, possibly extending to neighboring lot (315 E. 11th), though not clear which property is the culprit invader and which the invaded. Plants are in leaf, actively growing, and easily seen from sidewalk - a perfect opportunity for HAND inspectors to learn to identify and distinguish between these two highly-invasive species.
Excessive growth
Large tree-of-heaven growing on NE corner of lot alongside the alley and Grant Street, though cited in City ROW. This tree sends out so many seed every year, that properties close by regularly fight new growth. Very easy to see this tree, but best to send a HAND member who has had formal training to identify tree-of-heaven, else it might be missed...

For the last 25 YEARS I have complained to the city how the owner will not cut back weeds that have grown into trees or her other 8-15 feet weeds all around the property and the city has done nothing to make her keep the yard up . Now for the last 10 years she has had Bamboo that is overtaking her yard and starting to creep into my yard. I have tried to speak with her about doing something about her yard and she does nothing.The Bamboo she has is now illigal in Bloomington.
