Tidy yards

City of Powell River council has passed the initial readings of a property maintenance bylaw. The regulation imposes prohibitions regarding graffiti, rubbish and unsightliness on private and public property.

The bylaw also imposes a specific maximum height for grass. It states lawn grass must not exceed 30 centimetres (12 inches) from April 30 to September 30.
