Title

Ordinance - Second Reading on a Proposed Amendment to Section 92.05 of the Code of Ordinances Related to Maximum Height for High Grass and Weeds

 

Requested Action

To consider the proposed amendments

 

Description/History

As discussed with Council on August 14, 2017, the current high grass and weeds ordinance has a maximum height of 12 (twelve) inches.  This proposal reduces the height for residential and commercial properties to 10 (ten) inches.  We are also proposing to remove the words "on average" from this section as it is difficult to determine an average for tall grass.
