Weeds Fight Delays Slowing County City Weed Cuts
Hay fever sufferers and residents debate who should cut weeds along county trunks and city streets. The May 13 resolution orders adjoining property owners to weed along rights of way by July 15 or face county-cut costs. The city claims authority over vacant lots and may use its police power, while legal opinions limit county duties on urban weed control. The dispute centers on rural roads within city limits and costs could reach 100000 if county-wide control is adopted. Hay fever victims face disappointment as goldenrod and rag weed remain treated as non noxious under current laws.
