Works Department the FCWB performs vegetation management on road shoulders annually. Property owners adjacent to roadways may request that the shoulders along their property not receive an application of herbicide by completing a "Owner Will Maintain Agreement" with the Public Works Department. Details and agreements are available on the Franklin County website and must be completed by December 31, 2023 to be in effect for the upcoming year. Click here for more details.

Sign-up for the 2024 program will open at the end of November on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information about the program contact the office at 509-545-3847.
