LAHARPE Keep those clippings off the street.
LaHarpe City Council members approved Wednesday a new ordinance that makes it illegal for residents to mow in a manner that spews grass clippings on to nearby roadways.
Council members cited long-term damage to the chip-seal road surface and safety hazards for those on bicycles or motorcycles.
That said, the city could and should exercise discretion in handing out tickets, City Attorney Fred Works warned.
