I think its irresponsible for a municipality to require grass lawns...especially in a place as dry as Greeley. They should encourage low water and low fertilizer alternatives, zeroscape whenever possible
-
If I got fined $2k for weeds there would be a flaming bag of dog shit on the enforcers or mayors porch. I'd want to know who complained as well. They'd get a bag too.
-
Code enforcement can be worse than an HOA.
-
As you kind of mentioned....you need to find out if other residents/businesses are going through a similar situation. You also need to speak to your attorney either way because it really seems like Greeley is targeting you and your businesses.
-
You are obviously being harassed by either a neighbor or by the city. It's time to report all of those yards you showed and demand action. Two can play this game.
-
There is probably some sort of public record request you could submit to the city the number of people being fined for weeds.
-
I’m glad you wrote a letter of protest to the city. That’ ridiculous.
-
I would not want to own a property in Greeley, CO!
-
What exactly have you done to be on the city's hit list? Oh wait a minute, I've figured out what upsets the city: when you call them out in your videos for having double standards and giving city properties a pass. I'll bet there is nothing in the city ordinances spelling out how much of the yard must be actual grass by percentage.

I think someone on city council is smoking too much weed
-
Greeley is now an HOA. 😵💫 My HOA sent me a letter implying that they wanted me to dig out the individual weeds in the lawn. Yeah, Not happening.
-
Sounds like a money grab by the city.
-
This is nuts. Greeley Colorado it's time to catch up to the year 2024 and stop requiring grass lawns.
-
Sure sounds like they have it out for you.

Went through a very similar situation I refused to go to.said hearing; sent my lawyer instead... They added fines and told my lawyer I was a disinterested lazy homeowner Lawyer appeals and I drove around to all the town properties and took pictures. I submitted many many complaints on all if the cities properties over the course of a few months Guess what? I got a very curt apology letter and what amounted to a cease and desist letter Told them I'd happily oblige for no fines and for the town to stop being childish and Karen like over lawns Plus Having just had my way with the corrupt building inspector and getting him forced into retirement plus half his crew they begrudgingly gave in No one's been fined since 2021 and I pissed off half of the new residents who think parts of town are trash with weeds in the lawn and now they can't pay folks off to get illegal zoning for Airbnb or being forced into using his shady contractors 😅

Happy Thursday! 👋🏽👋🏽
-
It's strange because they targeted your lawn out of a row of lawns, and now all the other lawns look weedy and bare.
-
$2k is ridiculous. Also, I love how petty you are by showing their unkempt properties. 😂😂😂
-
If the tenants are renting shouldn’t they be responsible for the yard? We are currently renting while we are waiting for our home to be finished and it clearly states in our lease that the yard is our responsibility and if there are any fines by the city for the yard then we would have to pay them.

There are always a few people who work in these municipalities that harass only a few tax paying homeowners or rental owners and charge them with unnecessary fines. People need to start writing letters of complaints to the Mayor's office and their City/County manager, plus have a record of evidence and photos. It is just egregious that they are giving you this much hassle when the temperature is very hot and one is not supposed to waste water! Just shameful.
