Wanna bet the job to cut the grass is a union job? Can’t be putting union workers out of work by volunteering to do something for free.
This is so sick - we had a situation in one of our towns where there was high grass on adandoned (private) properties. Citizens were offering to mow the grass free, but the BOS stepped in and considered it trespassing and a liability issue. The BOS hired lawn mowers - several hundred dollars per 1/3 acre property - at the tax payers expense of course.
Sadly, some considered this a victory.
