Caryn neighbors tired of weeds
More than 80 residents in the Caryn community attended tonight's meeting on the proposed landscape maintenance fees hike and all were wondering, "What's up with the weeds?"
One resident said the vines in the public right-of-way have grown into her backyard, giving rodents a passageway into her home.
Another resident said there's no where to jog because the weeds have taken over the sidewalk.
Many said they were happy to vote for a fee increase, at about $14 more per month, but only if they can be assured the neighborhood will go back the way it used to be -- neat and tidy.
"$14? That's like three Starbucks," said resident Kari Boyer. "We just want our city back."

It is not only weeds.
It is too much of everything.
Like 2-3 rows of shrubs. The ones close to the sidewalk should go.
Two rows of trees plus the ones the homeowners have. Those big pines on the slopes are to big for that and also a fire hazard.
They are costly removal every time the wind tip them over.
They have no purpose.
Too much cost, too much water, too much pesticides etc.
Remember the more we owe at home or anywhere the more work and cost.
