Huntsville Landscape Management assigned this issue to Huntsville Community Development

This is a civil matter between the two property owners. Thank you.

So community development needs to send that property a letter stating that they need to clean this property up! There is a rotten tree, weeds, overgrowth and junk thrown around this tree there that needs to be cleaned up! Chapter 27, Article II of the Code of Ordinances of The City of Huntsville, Alabama, makes unlawful and a nuisance any grass or weeds that could be injurious to the general public health, safety, and welfare. The grass, junk and weeds around this tree is a violation of this law.
1. It is unsightly
2. Bearing wingy or downy seeds, when mature, that cause
the spread of weeds, and when breathed, irritation to the
throat, lungs and eyes of the public
3. Grass or weeds exceeding 8" in height

Please contact this office and speak with an area inspector to set up a time he/she can meet you to inspect what your concern is. Community Development # is 256-427-5400.

Thank you for responding, I will call them.

The inspector that works that area will be coming by tomorrow to leave a card for you to contact him. There is no City Ordinance as to standing trees or sapling around the tree. We had a crew there Friday to clean up the tree limbs that were on the ground.

Community Development Staff spoke with a representative of the property this morning about your concern. They assured us that they would evaluate the overall condition of the property. Please be advised that we cannot require anyone to remove trees, nor require the cutting, trimming or removal of scrub brush or saplings. If your have any further concerns, please call the office directly at 256-427-5400. Thank you, Your Huntsville Connect Customer Service Team.
