All Loveland property
owners have a legal and ethical duty to maintain their properties in
a clean and orderly manner. This duty includes keeping vegetation
mowed to a height no greater than eight inches and removing all
accumulations of cut weeds, brush, trash or rubbish.
The City ordinance
which governs weed control and rubbish accumulation applies equally
to both undeveloped and developed properties, and also includes the
alleyways and sidewalks adjacent to such properties.
Failure to comply with
this ordinance will result in a written, mailed warning to the
offending owner providing just seven days' time to correct the weed
or rubbish problem, after which the City will complete the work. The
cost of the work plus ten percent will then be assessed against the
property owner. After thirty
days' time without payment, another 10 percent penalty will be
added, and the entire assessment will be placed on the county tax
list for eventual recovery.
If you wish to report
a property which is not in compliance with the weed and rubbish
ordinance, please call the City's weed enforcement contractor at
962-2581.
