1385 Sherrin St. has not mowed their lawn once this year. Making the neighborhood look bad and is an awful sight to look at. It’s way beyond the 8 inches as defined in 66.0407.
Town of Algoma says
Hi Adam:
I have been in contact with the owner of the property again this year. The properties are now in foreclosure, so I am not sure he will mow the grass this summer or not. If not, the Town will have a contractor come in to pick up sticks and mow the grass.
