- ludamad 5y ago"You will pay 200% your monthly property tax for each day your grass is tall" is indeed ridiculous
- addled 5y agoAgreed. Better option would be to hire someone to cut the grass and bill the property owner for it.
- MeinBlutIstBlau 5y agoThat's how we do it in most cities in WI. Except the city gives you a written warning by mail. If you don't do it, they just charge you some flat fee to have a city worker do it. It's expensive, but nowhere near that ludicrous.
- majoram 5y agoThat makes so much sense. Which is how I know they'll never implement anything like that :(
- dTal 5y agoOr... just ignore it? It's grass, not toxic waste. Even better, subsidize it; it's valuable habitat for all kinds of species threatened by human activity.
