Thank you for reporting this issue. City of Burlington staff will now begin their investigation into the matter.

Thanks, although we may need chainsaws now as many of these have grown past the stage where hand pruners would be effective.

Can you say more specifically where you're seeing them?

Along the fence line just south of the tennis courts, but likely all along the park's fence line at this point.

The City is migrating this issue into a new work order system. This request is still valid - we will be working on a management plan in the upcoming months. Thank you ~Parks Conservation Team

Thanks for the update!

The Conservation program will be working on a managment plan for the buckthorn this year. Please contact Land Steward Dan Cahill dcahill@burlingtonvt.gov for follow up. A work order has been created and assigned. Thank you for your comments. ~Parks
