We received a letter from the Village of Lombard yesterday indicating that our grass was too tall and needed to be cut back to 8". Dave called the Village today to remind them that we went through the process last October of getting the permit, which involved Marcus providing detailed plans and a list of plants that would eventually take up permanent residence. We are waiting to hear back from the man who will make the call on this one.
In the meantime, I've been wondering about the best way to cut it back. It's pretty tall. How would you go from 2 feet of Rye and Oats to 8 inches? I'm thinking about renting some goats. :-)
I hope it doesn't come down to that though, because Marcus said it wouldn't be nearly as pretty if we had to cut it - it's just going to look stubbly and brown. I wish I knew who called in the complaint so that I could explain that to them because I think they may like what it looks like less after it's cut than before. Que sera sera (ie. whatever will be, will be -think Doris Day.)
