The City of Minneapolis is set to restart its rain garden project on Grand Avenue in the Kingfield Neighborhood, after the initial pilot project endeavor resulted in invasive weeds overtaking the intended wildflowers.Originally designed to absorb stormwater runoff and purify it, the gardens failed to establish the planned mix of native plants, resulting in widespread weed growth and causing uncertainty and annoyance for local residents. City engineer Liz Stout confirmed that the contractor will revamp the gardens and the city will oversee maintenance while the plants settle, according to KARE 11 News.
