CODE CORNER: FRIENDLY REMINDERS

WELCOME TO CODE CORNER, where community standards meet a clean and beautiful neighborhood! As your dedicated Code Enforcement Team, we kindly remind all residents and businesses of Matteson to adhere to our community guidelines for a harmonious living environment.

As spring blooms around us, it's time to roll up our sleeves and join hands in keeping our community beautiful. One simple yet impactful way to contribute is by maintaining our lawns. Here are some best practices to ensure our green spaces remain vibrant:

1. Keep Grass Trimmed: Aim to keep your grass trimmed below 6 inches in height. Regular mowing not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your lawn but also prevents weed growth. 

2. Combat Dandelions: With dandelions making their seasonal appearance, it's essential to address them promptly. Consider using a dandelion digger tool to uproot them effectively. Alternatively, natural weed killers made with vinegar or building water can help tackle these pesky intruders. 

3. Regular Maintenance: Make lawn maintenance a routine practice. Schedule regular mowing sessions and invest time in removing any weeds or debris that may detract from the beauty of your yard. 

By implementing these simple yet effective measures, we can collectively contribute to the charm and allure of our beloved Matteson. Let's work together to ensure our community remains a source of pride for all of us. 

Together, we can create a neighborhood that reflects the pride and care we have for our community.
