Why
do
I
have
to
cut
the
grass
along
the
City
street?
In
1998,
the
City
of
Lakewood
began
requiring
citizens
to
maintain
their
property
all
the
way
to
the
street.
The
City
still
maintains
the
right-of-way
along
all
the
major
corridors.

The
vacant
lot
next
door
is
never
mowed!
Vacant
lots
do
need
to
be
mowed.
Weeds
and
grass
cannot
exceed
a
height
of
twelve
(12)
inches
on
vacant
lots. |

auto
parts,

must
be
stored

My
neighbor
doesn't
clean
up
after
their
dog!
Animal
feces

Residents
must
cleanup

their
pets
on
a
regular
basis
(we
recommend
at

weekly).
Strong

are
considered
violations. |
