1.) Cost Share proposals need to be pre-approved prior to each spray season. The submittal deadline is April 30, 2011. The application must be filled out completely.
2.) The County Weed Superintendent and/or Weed Advisory Board will review all applications. Two or more landowners are required, within two miles of each others property lines.
3.) Leaders must keep a copy of all receipts for herbicides purchased, or if having work done by a commercial applicator; be sure the applicator itemizes labor, herbicide, and surfactant costs. Labor charges cannot be reimbursed. The County’s payment system requires a copy of the actual invoice or receipt for your purchases that clearly names the herbicides, the quantity, and its cost before any taxes. Only approved herbicides, spray adjuvants (stickers), and approved biological controls qualify.
4.) For 2010, Neighborhood Cooperative refunds may be made up to 80%, or to a maximum of $500.00 per landowner for herbicides on the invoices/receipts provided. Reimbursement requests must be turned in NO LATER THAN 4:00 p.m, on AUGUST 31, 2011.
5.) Reimbursement checks are usually issued by the county in October.
6.) Herbicides must be applied properly in accordance with all label instructions and safety precautions. You may contact the county weed department for assistance if needed.
7.) The refund amount is set at the sole discretion of the Bonner County Commissioners. The obligation of Bonner County to provide the cost-share reimbursement program is subject to the ability of the County Commissioners to appropriate funds for this program; no refund guarantee can be made if requests for the 2010 season exceed the funding budgeted for this program. No obligation of funds can be made beyond the 2010 fiscal budget year.
