Herbicides to be applied in Trail’s Gyro Park

The City of Trail said parts of Gyro Park will receive herbicide treatments this week and next.

On Wednesday of this week and the following Wednesday, certain areas will undergo treatment as part of routine maintenance. These areas will be marked with signs.

“While the treatment is quite safe after approximately 30 minutes of drying, we are taking a precautionary approach,” the city said in a news release.

They are asking you to avoid those areas until the signs are removed, 24 hours after application.

Grounds and roads manager Josh Conci told city council this week that the park has been “overloaded” with broadleaf this year. “It needs a good shot to bring it back to life before we put it to bed for the winter,” he said.
