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 13, Township 1 North,
Range 67 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. The property is designated in the Weld County
Assessors Office as parcel number 146913000011.
The noxious weed present on the property is: Russian knapweed (Acroptilon repens), diffuse knapweed
(Centaurea diffusa), and leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula).
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. Please be advised that if you do not control or eradicate these weeds by June
23,2001 , 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 356-4000, Ext. 3772 for myself.
Sincerely,
Tina Booton
Weed Control Field Technician
