RE: Notice of the Need for the Control or Eradication 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 property
which is owned,leased,and/or occupied by you and located in Section 9,Township 3 north,Range 66 west of
the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. The property is designated in the Weld County Assessors Office as
parcel(s)number(s) 121109300019.
The noxious weed present on the property is: 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 to keep 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 July 30
2004,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 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.
The office phone number is 970-356-4000, ext. 3770 or 3771 for Ron Broda or me.
Sincerely,
a-
