HTN: Lawnmowers Get City Refund
The great Buffalo lawmowing controversy of 2008 may finally be resolved. The Common Council has agreed to refund more than 200 homeowners money paid for improper tickets. The residents were fined incorrectly for letting their grass grow too high in their yards. Nearly 39-thousand dollars in refunds has been agreed upon by members of the Common Council because police used the wrong codes for issuing the tickets. Most of the summonses were for 150 dollars but some folks got hit with multiple tickets.

I know letting the grass grow a little can look a little messy, but it does allow wild flowers and insects to thrive.
But where does the city get off imposing fines for not using the lawn mower
