Join the Board
The County Council appoints board members after openings are posted in local papers. Each member serves for four years. The County is divided into five districts, with a member coming from each district. Four of the five members must be involved in commercial agriculture and all must live in their respective district.
A County Noxious Weed Coordinator is hired by the Board to carry out noxious weed control along County rights-of-way, work with property owners, oversee the Spartina eradication program, and provide education and assistance to County citizens about noxious weeds.
The Board does not have an active volunteer program, but encourages the public to control noxious weeds in their neighborhoods and to contact the Weed Board with locations of noxious weeds.
