The Trimont City Council on June 16 approved Ordinance 2025-01 on its second reading, setting a maximum grass height of eight inches or requiring cutting before grasses go to seed. The ordinance passed 4-1; Council Member Brian Krumwiede was recorded as the lone opposing vote.
Council Member Bradford Flohrs moved to approve the ordinance; Council Member Ronald Shade seconded the motion. The minutes record the outcome but do not provide a detailed rationale for Krumwiede’s dissent.
Why it matters: the ordinance modifies local nuisance and property-maintenance rules and will affect residential and commercial lot upkeep if enforced by city staff. The minutes do not list enforcement procedures, penalties, or an effective date.
Next steps: the ordinance was adopted on second reading and will take effect according to the city’s ordinance-adoption rules; the minutes do not record an effective date or additional administrative steps.
