Weed Ordinance Changes Adopted

During their regular meeting on Monday, August 3, the Sandusky City Council approved changes to the city’s weed ordinance.
Among the changes, are the increasing of grass height from 6 inches to 8 inches.
The second change to the ordinance is the tagging of residences that violate the ordinance. Rather than getting a second notice in the mail from the city clerk and having 7 days to mow their lawn, residents’ properties will be tagged with a notification stating they are in violation. They will then have a minimum of 72 hours to mow their lawn before the city takes action at the resident’s cost. A digital picture of the notice on the door will be taken to prove that the notification was served.
