DESCRIPTION
This act allows the City of St. Peters to order weeds or trash to be removed after notice has been sent or posted on the property. Currently only Kansas City, the City of St.Louis and any city, town or village located in St. Louis County may remove weeds or trash in this manner. If the weeds or trash are not removed within five days, the marshal or other designated city official may have the weeds or trash removed and bill the owner or owners of the property or the agents of the owner or owners.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
