Y'all southern boys sure are ditzy.

"Now we know why you don't shovel the sidewalk eh?"


Huh?
The city decided to clear my sidewalk for me and added a fee to my property taxes. I had no say in the matter.


Thats the way they deal with lazy folks who are slackers on
property maintenance.

That's the way things work in this county. If grass, for example, gets over 12" a call to the county
will get it cut and the property owner billed. The fee is added to property taxes if not paid.

In my little torn in hayseed Illinois they'll let the grass get taller than that, then send you a letter to react in 30 days( which can make the grass grow higher) then if it's not cut in that time frame, the village will cut it and tack a fee on your water bill. Stuff gets taken care of really quick then..,
