North Richland Hills FAQ

How tall can my grass grow in NRH before I get fined?

Grass and weeds over 12 inches tall on residential property trigger a notice. After 10 days without correction, citations and city cleanup contracts apply. Keep grass trimmed especially behind fences.

What if a neighbor will not clean up their blighted yard?

Call NRH Code Compliance at (817) 427-6650. Officers will inspect and issue notice to the owner. If uncorrected, the city can contract cleanup and lien the property for costs.
