Bindweed Spreading in Sidney

The City of Sidney Code Enforcement Officer mailed over one hundred letters this morning to property owners where bindweed has been observed to be growing and spreading. Code Enforcement would like to collaborate with residents to educate them on control and prevention of this very invasive species that has taken over areas on their property.

Cheyenne County has added Bindweed as a noxious weed; it is also considered a prohibited vegetation in the City of Sidney. We need property owner’s assistance with taking control of their land. Code Enforcement is also working with the City on getting problem areas of City owned land and right of ways that have bindweed under control. If you have questions or concerns regarding bindweed, please contact Lisa Hanley with Code Enforcement at 308-254-5515.
