Old Business: N/A 

New Business: 

The weed department uses an app called Weed Mapper.  The app does a lot of work and saves a lot of time. Brett Meyer is building a new app that will be more user friendly.  NWCA is paying for it. 

NRD and NET grant money. Bill talked with UENRD and LNNRD about a pledge of money to match the NET grant $6,000 grant for 3 years with matching grant money. The LNNRD already pledged $6000 a year for three years and will find out later about the UENRD pledge. This money will be used on river systems and lower areas to eradicate invasive weeds.

The board discussed bill paying with nothing for sure yet. 

Information on the following list of twelve noxious weeds found in Nebraska can be located at the neweed.org website with sufficient information on each noxious weed. 

Canada Thistle, Musk Thistle, Plumeless Thistle, Purple Loosestrife, Spotted Knapweed, Diffuse Knapweed, Saltcedar, Phragmites, Giant Knotweed, Japanese Knotweed, Sericea Lespedeza, Leafy Spurge.

A date was set for the next meeting August 6th, 2025, 7 PM at the Holt County Weed Office.  

The meeting adjourned at 7:54 pm.
