A. County Noxious Weeds: To prevent the entry and dissemination of county noxious weeds through any article, including machinery, equipment, plants, materials and other things, the board of county commissioners shall, from time to time, publish a list of articles capable of disseminating county noxious weeds, and designate treatment of such articles as, in their opinion, would prevent such dissemination. Until such article is treated in accordance with the applicable regulations, it shall not be moved from designated premises except under and in accordance with the written permission of the board of county commissioners, and the board may hold or prevent its movement from such premises. The movement of any such article which has not been so treated, except in accordance with such written permission, may be stopped by the board and further movement and disposition shall only be in accordance with the board's direction.
B. Unknown Plants. No plant, including seed or other propagules, shall be transported within or admitted into the county without accurate taxonomic identification (as to species by either Latin name or by common name listed in locally available standard reference works). All such plants shall be automatically and immediately designated county noxious weeds until their taxonomic identity is verified. (Ord. 168, 3-27-1991)
