Knapweed and Noxious Vegetation Clean-Up

The City would like to remind the residents of La Pine that knapweed is a noxious vegetation and therefore a nuisance. Ordinance 2014-03 states that "Noxious Vegetation" means (a) weeds more than ten (10) inches in height, (b) grass more than ten (10) inches in height, (c) dead or rank vegetation . . . e) hazardous thickets, or (f) other rank, noxious, and/or dangerous vegetation that is a health hazard, fire hazard, or traffic hazard because it impairs the view of a public right-of-way or otherwise makes use of the public right-of-way hazardous. Property owners are responsible for removing knapweed on their property and adjacent right-of-way.

Please contact City Hall for special bags and disposal options, as well as any other questions. The link to Ordinance 2014-03 is available here.
