�r�� e �i t� �� l� ��. ��i ll�.� � N��t��ar�� a� �n� �1�� Roseville neighborhoods are among the prettiest in the metropolitan area. Residents talce pride in their neighborhood and value their investment by lceeping their property neat and clean. The City Codes were established as far bacic as 1959 to assist residents in protecting and enhancing their property values as well as the quality of life. The City encourages voluntary co�nplia�lce with the codes. However, this may not always happen and City staff may intercede if a resident does not comply with the City Codes. The following is typical code questions and answers to l�elp you Ia�aw what is required and how to get help. � � �� .� I Inotice tltat a lot of r�?�• neighbors leave their trash cans out in front of tl7�e garage dooc Is this all right? No. City Code requires that your trash receptacle be stored out of sight. You can leave it in the garage until the day of trash picicup, or you can put it behind a decorative screen at the side of your house---but you can't leave it out on display. Putting the trash out the night before pickup is allowed, but leaving it out on a continual basis is not. Am I required to cut my grass? Yes. Roseville and its residents thinlc that cutting the grass is a good idea and is required. Tall grasses, nuisance weeds and ranlc vegetative growth must be maintained at a height of eight inches (8") or less. A neatly trimmed yard beauti�es a neighborhood; an overgrown yard depresses neighborhood appeal and property values. Cut grass before it reaches 8 inches in height. If there is a grassy boulevard beyond the sidewalk in front of my house, ant Irequired to mow the grass even +� � don't own that strip of Right-Of-Way? Yes. That piece of property is owned by the city or county but it is maintained by you. Your property may end at the sidewallc but your responsibility goes all the way to the curb. What happens if a code violation is found on my property? The City will mail out a"Notice" identifying what codes have been violated, what needs to be done to bring the property into compliance and identi�es a time frame for completion - usually fourteen days. Inspectors are flexible and will worlc with homeowners who are going through hardships. The notice also lists the inspector's name and phone number should you have any questions. Do notices of city code violations include a fine? "Notices" are simply a reminder that something needs to be corrected on a property. These are not ticicets and do not include �nes. A fine may be issued on properties if corrections are not completed after multiple requests have been made.
