Byram Township Municipal
Ordinance
Weeds
can often be unsightly to your neighbors' as well as
harbor snakes and insects. The
following is Byram Township's ordinance regarding the
weed management on one's property.
Property Maintenance
Code #186-15: Exterior Property Areas
Section D.
Weeds. All premises and
exterior property shall be maintained free from weeds ro
plant growth in excess of 10 inches (254 mm). All
noxious weeds shall be prohibited. "Weeds" shall be
defined as all grasses, annual plants and vegetation,
other than trees or shrubs; provided, however, this term
shall not include cultivated flowers and gardens
Healthy Lawns and Landscapes
Many
homeowners are recognizing the role lawn care plays in
keeping our lake healthy. The root systems of grass are
very shallow and do little to inhibit erosion or filter
runoff. In fact, lawns have little more benefit to your
lake than pavement! In addition, fertilizers and
pesticides for your lawn wash into the lake, adding huge
amounts of nutrients that feed the weeds in the lake; we
certainly don't want to feed our weeds!
Here is
a great brochure from the Chatham Township Board of
Health in conjunction with the Chatham Township
Environmental Commission, with tips for maintaining
healthy lawns and landscapes without negatively
impacting the lake. Please take the time to read it and
use it in practice!
