RE: Notice of the Need for the Control or Eradication of Noxious Weeds
Dear Landowner:
Under provision of the Colorado Weed ManagementAct(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 property
which is owned,leased,and/or occupied by you and located in Section 8,Township 2 north,Range 68,Weld
County,Colorado.The property is designated in the Weld County Assessors Office as parcel(s)number(s)
131308101005.
The noxious weeds present on this property are Canada thistle(Cirsium arvense)and Musk thistle(Carduus
nutans).
Because these weeds are going to seed and producing viable seed that will infest neighboring lands,they
must be mowed, cut or disked under tokeep from blowing.
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. Please be advised that if you do not control or eradicate these
weeds by August 5th,2007,I will ask the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County for
permission to enter the property to use one of these methods of control or eradication at your
expense,as provided in Section 355.5-109(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.
The office phone number is 97O356-4000 ext. 3796, or 3770 for Tina Booton.
Sincerely,
Barlen Joyner
Land Owner Specialist—Weed Division
