Huntsville limits grass and weeds to 12 inches maximum height on residential lots. Violations trigger abatement under the citys nuisance and weed ordinances enforced by Inspection Services.
Under Ala. Code 11-40-30 authority, Huntsville can cite properties with overgrown vegetation. Property owners receive a notice of violation with 7-14 days to mow. If unresolved, the city contracts mowing and assesses costs as a lien. Vacant lots and rental properties see frequent enforcement in the summer growing season.
Abatement charges typically 150-300 dollars per mowing plus 100 dollar administrative fee. Liens attach to property if unpaid.
