This is a difficult question to answer. Everybody has a different lifestyle - there are really no "normal" bills. If you feel your bill may be in error, you should compare it to your bill at the same time last year. If you have done this and you still believe there may be an error, report it to us. We will make every effort to re-read your meter and inspect your service.

You should mow the grass at the highest setting on your mower or at least 3 inches. Each time you mow, you should cut no more than 1/3 of the grass height. Note: There are exceptions for some warm season grasses such as bermuda centipede, and bentgrass that grow more dense at lower mower settings.

Answer: A complaint is filed with the department for an inspector to investigate. If the inspector determines a violation of a City ordinance relating to the height of grass has been violated, he issues a notice of violation which informs the owner of the violation and directs the violation to be corrected within a certain time. If the violation is not corrected, then a citation can be issued by the inspector.

You can generally start mowing 3-4 weeks after seeding your Bermuda lawn. Occasionally if growth is rampant, you may need to mow within 2 weeks after planting. Thereafter, mowing will be required in a range of 3 to 7 days depending on various factors. Bermudas are mowed from around 3/8 inch to 1 & 1/2 inches in height. Lower mowings require more frequent mowing. Height below around 1 inch may require a "reel" type mower to prevent scalping.
