Parking Enforcement Division
The Butte-Silver Bow Parking Enforcement Division is responsible for enforcing the parking laws and codes for the city-county of Butte-Silver Bow.
Weed Control Division
The efficient and economical management of weeds is a major factor in the production of all crops, cultivated, as well as rangeland. Noxious weeds are an economic and environmental problem requiring intensive long-term management. Education and cooperation, rather than enforcement, are and will be the key to the success of the weed management program. The objective of the Weed Board will be to control, contain, and in some cases, eradicate noxious weeds and to maintain a vigilance for new and potential invasions of noxious weeds into the county.
This program is supported by a tax levied throughout Butte-Silver Bow.
The control of noxious weeds in Butte-Silver Bow is of utmost importance. Please read the information provided below to identify weeds and learn more.
