City of Southfield COVID-19 Lawn Maintenance Guidelines
April 14, 2020
UPDATE: April 24, 2020
Commercial lawn mowing and landscaping businesses are now permitted to operate.
While the Governor’s executive order does not currently allow commercial lawn mowing and landscaping companies to operate, that does not stop homeowners from mowing and maintaining their own lawns and properties.
VIOLATIONS TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED
If you do rely on a commercial lawn service, please note that the City of Southfield will not be issuing tickets or violations for tall grass at this time.
PLEASE CONSIDER OFFERING TO HELP YOUR NEIGHBORS!
If your neighbor is elderly or physically incapable of mowing their own lawn, please consider offering to help! This random act of kindness will be greatly appreciated, especially during these difficult times. Residents are encouraged to consider helping others that rely on landscaping companies; however, please just practice appropriate distancing of at least 6 feet or more. Good neighbors make great communities!
