Commentary
Thanks, Megan. Shattuck, Patton, Hamilton, Hewett, BHH, Vermont, Taylors Ferry...pretty much every major street between Germantown and the Clackamas line gets a once-over by me or the crews every spring. So, please don't feel like you need to do a lot of handpulling (or any, actually, until we get a first treatment down) along roadsides. We'll get to it. It's just takes a little time with the weather as it is. Check out what we've already treated plus our westside treatment map at www.portlandoregon.gov/bes/garlicmustard.
Let me know if you've got questions or concerns at mitch.bixby@portlandoregon.gov.
