RE:Notice of the Need for the Control of Noxious Weeds
Dear Landowner:
Under provision of the Colorado Weed Management Act(35-5.5-109 CRS),and Weld County Code,Chapter 15,
Article II this letter is to serve as notice that the presence of noxious weeds has been observed on properties which
are owned, leased,and/or occupied by you and located in: Section 4 Township 1 North,Range 66 West of the 6th
P.M.,Weld County,Colorado;parcel# 147104300075.
The noxious weed present on the property is: Scotch thistle(Onopordum acanthium).
Because these weeds are nearing bloom stage,they must be controlled and kept from going to seed. Presently,the best
methods of control are: 1)to mow as necessary throughout the year to keep the weeds from going to seed(3-5 times)and
then spray with herbicides in the fall,2)to mow throughout the season to keep the plants from going to seed,3)to spray
with herbicides up to the early flower stage.
Section 35-5.5-109,C.R.S.and Weld County Code,Chapter 15,requires you to control the weeds by using at least
one of these methods by June 25'" or submit an acceptable weed management plan with an acceptable completion
date or request an arbitration panel by June 25'". If you do not comply by June 25`" ,I will request a Right of
Entry from the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County to enter the property to control the designated
noxious weeds at your expense,as provided in Section 35-5.5-109(5a)C.R.S.and Weld County Code,Chapter 15.
I will be glad to answer any questions you may have regarding the control or eradication of the noxious weeds on the
property. I am also available to assist you in developing short and long term weed management plans.My office phone
number is 356-4000,Ext. 3770 or 3778. Please ask for Tina Booton or me.
Sincerely,
Shana Benson
