A. Designation: Any County resident may submit to the Commissioners a request for County noxious weed designation of a species if such request is in writing and includes reasons and a proposed plan for County action on such species. All non-native plant species reliably reported to exist in the County, and all requests for County noxious weed designation, must be considered by the County Weed Advisory Committee for recommendation for County noxious weed designation to the Commissioners within six (6) months of request or recommendation to either the Commissioners or the County Weed Advisory Committee. Records of all such considerations must be maintained on permanent file by the Commissioners.
B. Action Plans: Every species for which County noxious weed designation is deemed feasible, including species considered for temporary designation, shall be designated a County noxious weed only upon recommendation including reasons and a written plan for County action to control such species. This report will include clear designation of any Special Management Zones, from the County Weed Advisory Committee and subsequent approval by the Commissioners. County noxious weeds under this chapter shall be designated by a separate resolution of the Commissioners, and shall be listed by both common and scientific names. Any species designated noxious pursuant to this chapter shall automatically and immediately become no longer designated under this chapter if and when that species is designated noxious under Idaho Code.
