Weed Control Plans
The Billings County Weed Board assists our local Zoning Board by inspecting new development areas within the County. Permits are processed through the Zoning Department and depending upon the type of application, certain requirements are necessary. The Weed Control Officer is to inspect zoned areas before the ground is disturbed. This is to assess if there are any State or County Noxious weeds present at a site before construction. The Weed Control Officer will note any Noxious Weeds present upon inspection. Methods of control are noted to help the applicant manage the plants currently located at the site and prevent them from spreading.
