IRVM - Integrated Roadside Vegetation Management

In 1988 Section 314.22 on Integrated Roadside Vegetation Management was added to the Iowa Code. "It is declared to be in the general public welfare of Iowa and a highway purpose for the vegetation of Iowa's roadsides to be preserved, planted, and maintained to be safe, visually interesting, ecologically integrated, and useful for many purposes."


Black Hawk County supports the objectives and initiatives of IRVM. To learn more about this program visit the following websites:
