Property Maintenance CODE 302.4 The following code 302.4 refers to Weeds and Grass. It is inherent on all residents to maintain their property. One of the most obvious violations that is prevalent within the borough is the height of a resident’s grass. As per the code, grass is to be kept no higher than 6 inches. It should also be noted that different residents have different versions of property maintenance. We are not looking to fine residents who have their lawn at 7 inches in length! Please be assured that I do not carry around a tape measure to verify the length of a lawn! This code will result in a violation if your lawn is not maintained and has become a nuisance to the surrounding neighborhood.
