Springfield reports the 1971 noxious weed law and seed law, signed by Gov. Richard Ogilvie, become effective July 1. The weed law empowers county and state officials to control weeds, imposes fines up to 100 dollars first offense and 200 dollars for later offenses, and may allow county taxes for weed control after a referendum.
