 Grass over 12 inches high, nauseous weeds, and volunteer trees less than three inches in diameter. These are things that are not allowed along streets, in alleys, or on privately owned lots in the city of Boone. This is Ron Kaler, Boone's community service officer, and it is my job to make sure these rules are followed. As the owner or occupant of a property, it is your job to make sure you're in compliance.
