DRAFT <br />Addendum II (Inspection) <br />TO: Custer County Property Owner <br />FROM: Custer County Weed Manager <br />DATE: <br />RE: Noxious Weeds <br />It has come to my attention through observation from a county right-of-way or <br />neighboring property that certain Colorado listed noxious weeds may exist on your property. I <br />would like to personally inspect your property on { {date and time} } to confirm the presence of <br />noxious weeds. Please contact me at (719) { { } } upon receipt of this letter if this date and time <br />is not convenient for you. <br />Noxious weeds are species of plants that are not native to Colorado, are invasive, degrade <br />property values, and often overtake native vegetation. In an effort to protect Custer County's <br />wildlife and ecosystems, we are asking property owners to control the noxious weeds on their <br />land. <br />Listed below are noxious weeds that are problematic in Custer County. The weeds <br />observed on your property are required by the Colorado Noxious Weed Act (Colorado Revised <br />Statutes 35-5.5) to be managed. The weeds checked below may be on your property, thus <br />requiring management. <br />o Bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare) <br />o Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense) <br />o Common mullein (Verbascum thapsus) <br />o Dalmation toadflax (Linaria dalmatica) <br />o Diffuse knapweed (Centaurea diffusa) <br />o. Hoary cress (Cardaria draba) <br />o Houndstongue (Cynoglossum ofcinale) <br />o Leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula) <br />o Musk thistle (Carduus nutans) <br />o Oxeye daisy (Chrysanthemum leucanthemum) <br />o Russian knapweed (Acroptilon repens) <br />o Spotted knapweed (Centaurea maculosa) <br />o Yellow toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) <br />There are various methods to control noxious weeds such as cultural, mechanical, <br />biological, and chemical. At the time of our visit, I will provide you with information to help <br />you make the best decision on controlling the noxious weeds identified on your property. <br />We appreciate your cooperation in helping return Colorado to its natural beauty. Please <br />do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. <br />(CCWMP-Inspection Itr.)
