Spring Reminders for Being a Good Neighbor
Spring Reminders
Spring is here, and we are sharing some reminders to help us all be great neighbors!
🌿 Residential or developed, non-residential property must keep weeds and grass shorter than eight inches tall. Sweeping or blowing lawn and garden debris into the street is prohibited, as is allowing grass or weeds to grow over the curb.
🗑 City Code prohibits garbage accumulating on or in any property. This includes but is not limited to waste matter, trash, debris, dirt, dry grass, dead trees, tin cans, paper, etc., that may become a fire hazard or a menace to health, safety, and welfare.
💧 If you have a pool, spa, or other water receptacles at your residence, it's important that you maintain it so that it doesn't become offensive or a health concern for neighbors or passersby.
🚕 Property owners should not park an automobile, truck, or any other motor vehicle or trailer for over 48 hours when the vehicle or trailer is without one or more wheels or is apparently inoperative for any reason, including not having registration or current inspection.
UPCOMING GOOD NEIGHBOR EVENTS:
