All residential zoned yards less than 5 acres in size must be cut so that the height of the grass is less than 8” high and all noxious weeds are eliminated. For all vacant lots less than 5 acres in size, the height of the grass must be less than 10” in height. If the property is 5 + acres in size, there is a 30’ perimeter requirement in which the property must be cut less than 8” in height unless property is vacant in which it must be cut less than 10” in height.

Those areas of vacant lots within 30’ of the paved street or adjacent properties must have the grass trim cut around obstructions such as utility poles, mailboxes, or trees. The City will notify persons not complying with regulations of the need to mow their property. If the property is not mowed, the City will see that the property is mowed and bill the violator for the cost of mowing plus an additional $70 administration fee.
