As summer is here, the uncontrolled growth of weeds and brush creates an all too familar problem. This unsightly growth creates the possibility for fires to take place as well as provide handy breeding grounds for rodents and insects.
The City of Rising Star has an Ordinance which requires the property owner to control the growth of weeds and brush on their property so that at no time are there more than 12 inches in height. Each of us appreciates the rights and privileges of property ownership; therefore, we must all accept the responsibilities along with these rights.
In lieu of possible court action (if owner fails to comply) the CIty may direct the mowing, clearing of your property by using Municipal resources or hire a private contractor. For such work, the owner will be charged for any costs the City incurs on the mowing, cleaning of property or removal of vehicles in violation.
If you wish to discuss the City Ordinance or requirements regarding weed and brush control, and junked or abandoned vehicles, you may call the CIty office at 254-643-4261.
Each summer, tourist and travelers begin to visit our City for reunions, festivals, and other events. Please help make Rising Star a safer, more beautiful and healthier place in which to live and work.
Thank you to all who keep their property maintained by mowing and keeing clean, and removing all junk and abandonded vehicles
