Tracy Code Enforcement addresses unmaintained yards with overgrown vegetation as nuisances. There is no separate specific grass height ordinance, but properties must be maintained to prevent blight and fire hazards. Contact Code Enforcement at (209) 831-6410.
Tracy does not publish a standalone maximum grass height ordinance but enforces property maintenance standards through Code Enforcement (TMC nuisance provisions). Overgrown, weedy, or neglected front yards that create visual blight or fire hazards are subject to code enforcement action. The Tracy Police Department Code Enforcement Division (tracypd.com) handles complaints about unkempt properties. California Fire Code also requires that vegetation be managed to reduce fire risk, particularly during dry season. Residents can report violations via the City's GoRequest app or by calling (209) 831-6410.
Nuisance vegetation: code enforcement notice and abatement order. Failure to comply may result in the City performing the work and billing the owner.
