YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET OUTSIDE AND PULL THE WEEDS THAT HAVE SPROUTED UP IN YOUR YARD. WEEDS RIGHT NOW ARE BASICALLY OUT OF CONTROL IN ALBUQUERQUE … AND NOW THE CITY SAYS IT’LL FINE YOU 250 DOLLARS FOR NOT GETTING RID OF THEM.
KOB TV REPORTS YOU’RE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WEEDS NOT ONLY ON YOUR PROPERTY, BUT ALL THE WAY TO THE CURB IN FRONT OF YOUR PROPERTY. THE CITY WANTS WEEDS OVER 4 INCHES TO BE REMOVED. IF YOU DON’T DO WHAT THE ORDINANCE SAYS, YOU COULD BE FINED 250 DOLLARS.
THE ORDINANCE ALSO ALLOWS THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT’S CODE ENFORCEMENT DIVISION TO GET RID OF WEEDS.
