No Mow May Clarification

The Town of Algoma does not participate in the “NO MOW May” initiative. The City of Oshkosh does allow residents to let their yards grow during the month of May; however, the Town does not. According to Town of Algoma Ordinance 130-2: The owner of every parcel of land within the Town to which this ordinance applies shall cut or cause to be cut all grasses prior to them exceeding eight (8) inches in height throughout the growing season. This includes dandelions, weeds, vegetative growth and noxious weeds as defined in § 66.0407, Wis. Stats. Thank you!
