CITY TO BEGIN SPRAY PROGRAM FOR RIGHT-OF-WAYS
Notice is hereby provided that the City of Cave Junction will begin spraying the right-of-way within city limits beginning April 20, 2023 (weather and wind conditions permitting). Spraying will be performed by Greenway Spray, a contract sprayer.
A “NO SPRAY” program is available for property owners who do not wish the city to spray along the right-of-way abutting their personal property.
Applications to participate in the no-spray program will be available at City Hall at 222 W. Lister Street, Cave Junction, Oregon or can be printed out from the city’s website at cavejunctionoregon.us. Participants in the no-spray program must have a completed 2023 Property Owner Annual Agreement form on file at City Hall and must use signage provided by the city. Only those participants that have completed the No-Spray Annual Agreement and have been provided the City’s No Spray signs will be recognized during the spray process. Participants may not sign an annual agreement on behalf of other residents or addresses other than the address they own.
No Spray signs must be up no later than April 19, 2023 and must be taken down no later than June 15, 2023. There will be no charge for the first set of signs provided by the City.
The City will be inspecting “No Spray” zones on a weekly basis beginning May 01, 2023. Right-of-ways that are found in violation of the maintenance required in accordance with City Municipal Code 8.08.090 will be documented, and maintenance will be completed by the City Public Works staff. Property owners who have not maintained their right-of-way, will be notified of this action and informed that they no longer qualify for the city’s “No Spray” program.
If you have questions concerning this No Spray program, please contact City Hall at 541 592-2156. We would be happy to answer your questions and explain the program.
