OP, I would suggest that you download and read your deed restriction document from the website, "districtgov.org". Here is what mine says about weeds:

"Maintenance of landscaping shall further mean the exercise of generally accepted garden-management practices necessary to promote a healthy, weed-free environment for optimum plant growth".

Obviously, this is very subjective and common sense is not sufficient to ensure the agreement of everyone. That is why I would suggest getting an opinion from the Community Standards office as to whether your neighbor is in compliance with their standards. That is their job. You don't need to "turn them in" but it will at least give you an official opinion when you discuss the issue with the neighbor.
