I live on Slate Dr also and this area is a recurring problem. No one has taken responsibility for the maintenance. I am glad that it is getting attention now because the growth is once again getting out of control. Thank you.

We bought this house a month ago and I know it hasnt been touched since ive been here. I as well as other people cross the street walking our dogs because its so dense and we dont know whats in there. I hope more people get involved from the neighborhood so this can be resolved.

Community Development will assign an inspector to check the property for violations of the grass and weed ordinance. This ordinance only requires the cutting of grass or weeds over 8 inches in height and consume an abundance of the yard. We cannot require the trimming of bushes, shrubs, ornamentals, ivy or trees. Thank you for contacting us.

I have lived on Slate Dr. for roughly 8 years now. The grass growing all over the mounds that surround the Sub Station at that location has always been an eye sore! The city should set up or have a schedule made to cope with having the grass cut or mowed every year.

We have a current notice for grass cutting and upon the final date it was found not to be in compliance of the grass and weed ordinance. A work order has been assigned for our crew to cut. This issue should be resolved shortly.

Thanks for fixing this issue!

Thank you Huntsville Community Development!

Thanks for fixing this issue!

This issue is not resolved. Worse than ever.

Did you intend to reopen the issue Christal?

Absolutely

The grass has not been cut as of Sep 10th but I think it takes a few days once the work order has been placed for it to get on the cutting schedule.

Open

Still waiting. Was first reported almost 2 weeks ago. Can anyone give me an estimate on how long this will take to be resolved?

Still waiting! !! Can I get an estimated date for this to be cut?

Apparently this lot gets cut twice a year according to all my neighbors. Im sure that noone in community development or the mayors office

wants this eyesore in their neighborhood.

Our crew cut the lot on the 22nd of September. Thank you for contacting us.

Thank you very much!

Is there a way the homeowners can see or find out when the city will cut it again next year?

The ordinance requires us to notify the owner of the property each and every time it is violation of the City's Grass and Weed Ordinance. After the 14 day time frame, we would then be allowed to issue a work order for our crew to cut the lot.

Thanks for fixing this issue!

I believe this parcel of land belongs to HSV. City. It's the area around the Sub Station there! So, is there anyway the home owners can see or be notified when this will be cut in the future ? ( Next year )
