<br />The City can support “No Mow May” through a resolution directing staff to not issue correction <br />notices associated with Chapter 904 of the City Code for tall grass and weed violations for the <br />month of May. Enforcement of Chapter 904, which in part sets a height limit of eight inches for <br />grass and weeds, would then resume in June. <br />If a resolution is approved, residents who wish to take part in this voluntary program could print <br />a sign to display in their yards to enhance the educational component of this initiative. The Bee <br />City USA website https://beecityusa.org/no-mow-may/ has sign templates available for free. <br />There are hundreds of pollinator species adapted to hundreds of native plant species in our area. <br />While allowing non-native weed species to flower in lawns is no substitute for expanding the use <br />of native plants, this program does aid in increasing public awareness about pollinators while <br />shifting the aesthetic in favor of more natural landscaping methods. <br />The Environmental Board recommended supporting “No Mow May” at the May 4th, 2022 <br />meeting. <br />The City Council, at their May 9th, 2022 Work Session opted to postpone the topic until 2023 to <br />allow time for more information gathering and discussion. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Recommendation to the City Council on whether to support “No Mow May” in Lino Lakes. <br />
