Weed superintendent: spraying, cost‑share chemicals available; phragmites and purple loosestrife control starting soon
Summary
Weed Superintendent Carlson told commissioners right-of-way and blind-intersection spraying continues, cost‑share chemicals are available to riverlandowners, and spraying of phragmites and purple loosestrife will begin soon.
Weed Superintendent Carlson updated the Polk County Board on July 28 that right-of-way and blind-intersection spraying is ongoing and that farm shredding of right-of-ways has been helpful. Carlson said cost-share chemicals are available to landowners along the river.
Carlson added that targeted spraying of phragmites and purple loosestrife will begin in the near term. The report did not include dates or specific cost figures for the cost-share program in the meeting minutes.
