Part of the Natural Resource-Fire Safety Budget focuses on removal of invasive species. As usual, we are prioritizing scotch broom removal, as this is a highly invasive and flammable plant, which spreads very rapidly.

 

We are asking your help in identifying any new infestations which may have cropped up in the past year. Normally, we focus on known infestations on the east bluff, but if you are aware of any other areas, either on the west side or upland areas, we would greatly appreciate it if you would let is know. Even isolated plants should be removed before they can spread their seeds and become many more.

 

We will be having a contractor out to complete this work later this spring, so if you have any information about new scotch broom sites, please let us know within the next couple of weeks, at pmurphy889@aol.com

 

Thank you.
