Stop the spread of noxious weeds
Under Alberta’s Weed Control Act, weed inspectors are authorized and required to enter private property to inspect for noxious and prohibited noxious weeds. Â
Starting in June, our weed inspectors will be out actively inspecting properties within Strathcona County.Â
All homeowners have a responsibility to help stop the spread of weeds that can be harmful to the environment and public and private property.
Trees and plants are an important part of our ecoscape. Noxious weeds, tree pests and other natural elements can disrupt healthy plant life. County services include taking steps to protect our natural habitat, both on public and private property. Residents have an important role to play, too.
