It causes issues with the drains and it's dangerous. This neighbor has been trying to move for awhile, they're the type that just wants to keep up with the Joneses and are in debt up to their eyeballs.

Expand Id like to see how that CFR/ORC is written....So if ONE blade of grass goes from your lawn onto pavement, its considered unlawful? Also, the first 20 ft (typically) are the right of way of the road, so that's technically not their property to maintain in the first place.

Expand They were writing fines for leaving the water on while wiping down the car. How do you measure that, how long can you leave it running? Same situation and they made it work. Nevada used to have laws where if the water ran into the street, you were using too much. That's like asking how much is considered littering? You can throw out a cigarette butt, but what about a gum wrapper, or tissue paper? It all goes by judgement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand People can mow their yard properly AND not load it with chemicals. That's most most people do. I'm not sure where that correlation came from anyways. I just simple want my asshole of a neighbor to make one pass with his riding mower the opposite direction, or after he is finished mowing, simply blow it back into his yard. It's just a common courtesy i thought. I doubt it's going to happen though. His hedges at the edge of their driveway start hanging out in the streets so far a pickup truck can't get through without hitting them, so I go up there with the electric hedge trimmers and trim them nice and crooked. Apparently he can't get the hint on that one either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Let's see here I have a beautiful Green Lawn, and I've never put a single chemical on it. I almost never blow it into the street and if I accidentally do I immediately go out with the leaf blower and clean it up. And I keep it mowed at least once a week. Common courtesy and responsibility all wrapped up in one neat little package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand By the pic, it looks like that lawn was pretty damn hi when it was mowed. ...so the assumption is it is not well looked after, not loaded with chemicals/fertilizers/weed killers/ insecticides/ rodent control/lime/land mines/shallow graves, etc. Maybe a bad assumption.?
