The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

With spring finally arriving, I want to remind everyone of some items associated with wet and warmer weather.

First, grass and weeds are not allowed to exceed five inches in height in Waitsburg, so please keep your lot(s) mowed and/or sprayed.

Second, warm weather brings on puncture vine; depending on what stage you catch it, the best course of action is to spray it, burn it with a weed burner, or dig it up and throw it away. The city crew only has a limited amount of time to spray and doesn’t typically devote a lot of time to spraying road edges.

It would go a long way if you happen...
