Lawnmowing Reminder

May 30 2023

Attention all residential vacant lots and commercial vacant lots:

Each year the Municipality encourages resident and business owners to keep their lots mowed and tidy.  We have noticed a significant number of issues this year. 

Please note:

All residential vacant lots and commercial vacant lots and properties will receive an order to remedy in the mail directing them to have their properties mowed by the 20th of each month (MGA S. 546).  The order to remedy will be under MGA S. 546 and will be explicit regarding unsightly conditions (b) (ii).  Should compliance not be met, the Town of Thorsby will under MGA S. 546(2) (b) take action or measure to mow the property at the expense of the owner.  The only exceptions will be severe drought and/or excessive rain.

The Town is quite confident that we have pride in our town and that every measure will be taken to keep properties, especially vacant properties, neat and tidy, and we look forward to seeing a beautiful looking town this summer.
