The purpose of this chapter is to beautify and preserve the appearance of the City by requiring property owners and occupants to maintain grass lawns at a uniform height within the boundaries of their property and on abutting street right-of-way in order to prevent unsightly, offensive, or nuisance conditions.
Grass, weeds or brush shall be cut, mowed, and maintained so as not to exceed the following height specifications:
1. Developed Areas – Not to exceed 8 (eight) inches.
2. Undeveloped Areas – Not to exceed 15 (fifteen) inches.
3. Agriculture Areas – Not to exceed 15 (fifteen) inches.
4. Designated Pollinator Habitat or Prairie Areas – No requirement to mow if requested and designated by City.
5. Requested “Mow Less May” Areas – Not to exceed 12 (twelve) inches.
Grass, weeds, and brush that are allowed to grow in excess of the above-specified limitations are deemed to be violations of this chapter. Any property within the City, whether vacated or non-vacated, is required to conform to these specifications.
