We did some checking and found that in the city of Macon, if the grass in your yard exceeds eight inches high, you will receive a letter from the city giving you 12 days to respond and cut your lawn. if you fail to do so, the city will do it for you and you'll be charged the local lawn service fee plus a 100 dollar administrative fee by the city of Macon.
In the city of Kirksville your lawn is not allowed to exceed eight inches tall. if you are found to be in violation of the limit, you could be facing action in municipal court, there also could be a monetary penalty as well.
In Ottumwa, the limit is more lenient, 12 inches tall, before you'll be found in violation. At that point the city will leave a notification on your door, which could be followed by the city mowing your lawn at your expense.
