Roscommon County Road Commission announces roadside spray program opt-out

ROSCOMMON — The Roscommon County Road Commission is reminding residents about its annual roadside vegetation suppression spray program, designed to control noxious weeds and brush along county roads. The program, typically conducted in the late spring and early summer, utilizes herbicides approved by the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development and is applied by a licensed professional.

Residents who wish to opt out of having the roadside frontage adjacent to their property sprayed can submit a request to the Road Commission. The request must include the property address and parcel number.

A dedicated opt-out request form is available for residents to download and submit to the Road Commission office. This allows property owners to manage vegetation control along their specific road frontage.

The suppression spray program is a standard annual practice aimed at maintaining road safety and preventing the spread of invasive plant species. The Road Commission works to ensure that all applications meet state and local regulations.

Residents needing to submit an opt-out request should ensure they have their property address and parcel number readily available. Further details and the opt-out form can be found on the Roscommon County Road Commission's official channels.
