10. New Business <br />Ms. Larison had noticed invasive yellow irises along the canoe canal. She had asked about them and the response <br />was that staff would try to figure out how to contact people and let them know that the yellow irises were not a <br />good thing. She explained that the iris was insidious and should not be propagated in or near a waterway. Mr. <br />Richardson responded that property lines went back and forth but the City did not own the opposite side. <br />Ms. Ferschweiler suggested that they contact the neighborhood. Mr. Sonnichsen observed that the Harlow <br />Neighbors was much more extensive than just the Chevy Chase region. <br />Mr. Richardson said he would mention it to Trevor Taylor and Laurie Holts. He noted that in some unusual <br />situations they might approach a house owner and offer to get rid of invasive plants, but that they did not have the <br />staff necessary to do this on any regular basis, and would need to weigh pros and cons carefully. <br />11.
