The lack of laws around this right now are so damaging. A negligent homeowner can unknowingly be growing a nursery of invasive plants that are putting out tens of thousands of seeds to the surrounding area every year, not to mention direct spreading by tubers and creeping vines into neighboring properties. As a result, all neighbors of that property have to pay an endless recurring maintenance cost to prevent invasives taking hold in their yards.
Without some kind of enforcement, there's little hope of getting invasive species populations under control, because it only takes one incompetent and/or negligent property owner to make the issue way harder for everyone else.
