Dangerous invasive black locust tree colony at Good Harbor
Please take steps to eradicate the colony of black locust trees between Good Harbor Beach creek and Nautilus Road. Black locust is a sprawling invasive that could threaten the entire wetland area between the creek and Thacher Road if it spreads. This plant chokes out other species of vegetation, and its stems, bark, and seeds are toxic to animals. The trees are covered in fierce thorns that pedestrians will not be expecting and will undoubtedly result in @#$% and scratches this summer. The roots have obviously already eroded the sidewalk, and the damage will only get worse if the colony is allowed to expand. The whole colony should be torn out.
