not true - we live in Bloomington, south of Man O War and this is not the case here. In fact, the only time the city actually worked on the bike path which was destroyed Dec 2010 was when FEMA was here about 6 months ago. After FEMA left so did city workers. Tamarisk is coming back from the floods of 2005 or was it 2006...anyway has done nothing, NOTHING except release those damn bugs which really don't kill tamarisk, just eats it down then they come back again. The ONLY places they do something about tamarisk is by Southgate Golf course and by Riverside Drive..mainly the mayor's pet projects....they wouldn't even fill in 6 foot holes left after the floods and mainly caused by those rock walls which is the best home for all the racoons, skunks, squirrels another words all the rodents who love to dig and dig..so no, St. George is NOT making progress at removing unless you live where the mayor has friends or he uses that particular path. And the city purchased a machine that removes tamarisk but where they use it is a good question to me.
