The Coffey County Commission approved the county's 2025 noxious-weed management plan for county and state right-of-ways and authorized staff to sign the 2024 eradication progress report.
The commission discussed whether the plan paperwork was included in distributed meeting materials; staff provided hard copies during the meeting and the board moved and approved the annual plan. Commissioners also approved the 2024 eradication progress report, which staff said had been submitted to the state and included countywide acreage figures and disbursement information on the back page.
Why it matters: Noxious-weed management affects maintenance of road shoulders and right-of-ways and is part of annual compliance and reporting to the state. The eradication report documents control efforts and supports coordinated spray and shoulder maintenance.
What the record shows: The board approved two related annual items by voice votes and directed staff to file paperwork. Commissioners briefly discussed whether copies appeared in the electronic packet; staff confirmed submission to state agencies as required.
