September 4, 2020 – Two parking ordinances and an amendment to the Weeds ordinance were passed by the Common Council at their August 3^rd meeting and are now set to go into effect.

WEEDS OVER 10 INCHES IN HEIGHT

“Overgrown yards are among the most frequent complaints that we get at the City,” stated Mayor Anita Werling. “This amendment to the Weed Ordinance removes some ambiguities and makes owners or residents at an address responsible for maintaining their property free of weeds or rank vegetation over 10 inches in height.”
