Native Grasses Ordinance Amendments:
Marlin Petersen, City Attorney explained
that Code Enforcement wrote a citation
for planted vegetation in the right-of-way
which sparked conversations with the
resident, Mrs. Klein, and city staff about
prairie planting or native vegetation in
right-of-way. He shared several ordinan-
ces that are currently on the books that
touch on the topic of allowing, with some
regulation, plantings in the right-of-way by
private property owners. Through the
course of looking at these ordinances and
the ordinances of other communities, they
allow exceptions for native plantings. He
shared that the matter needs much more
deliberation at the department level to
figure out if structuring a permitting
system would be ideal and whether
council is comfortable with how ordinan-
ces currently read. Overall, he requested
council provide some direction on wheth-
er this topic should be pursued further
and brought back to council for additional
review.

cussed the proposed ordinance changes
with Mr. Petersen.
