Weeds

City Weed Inspectors will be out and about this spring and summer checking for noxious and prohibited noxious weeds. Weed Inspectors will be exploring private and City property throughout the community.

You can do your part by checking your yards for some of the common noxious and prohibited noxious weeds found in our area.

A weed is any plant growing where it is not wanted where it is in competition with cultivated plants. Weeds are legislated in Alberta through the Alberta Weed Control Act and Regulation.

Weed control methods are hand pulling and bagging, chemical control, and mechanical control.

Contact your local weed inspector for the best method of weed control for Prohibited Noxious or Noxious weeds on your property by calling AccessGP at 311.
