Noxious Weeds
The City of Rochester Hills Weed Ordinance requires that property owners cut noxious weeds and grass that has grown taller than eight inches.
Starting May 1st each year and continuing throughout the summer, the City's weed control contractor, along with ordinance inspectors, will patrol the city looking for vacant and occupied lots that are not in compliance with the ordinance. The lots not in compliance will be cut and the cost billed to the property owner. Unpaid weed cutting bills are applied as a lien against the property.
All residents and property owners are encouraged to maintain their properties for the good of their neighbors. For questions, please call the Building Department office at 248-656-4615.
