Public nuisance standards

Weeds constitute a public nuisance when they:

• Create a fire hazard
• Are a source of contamination or pollution of water, air or property
• Become a danger to health
• Create a breeding place or habitation for insects or rodents
• Are harmful to human habitations
• Are unsightly to their surroundings

Weed height restriction

Weeds may be no taller than 12 inches above the ground at all times during the year.

Weed abatement may be accomplished by hand trimming and mowing. Regular landscape maintenance can minimize weed growth through responsible, preventative herbicide application.

What happens if I don't keep my weeds under control?

The Town sends reminder letters to property owners that are in violation of the Municipal Code throughout the year. Property owners are urged to keep their property clear of weeds and overgrown vegetation. Failure to comply with the Municipal Code Health and Safety regulations could result in Code Enforcement action.

The Town of Castle Rock strives to set a high aesthetic standard to preserve the rich traditions and quality of life. Please assess your property and take necessary action toward weed abatement.
