Fines for too-tall grass could rise to $1,000 a day in Jupiter

JUPITER — An overgrown lawn could cost a
homeowner $1,000 a day.
A plan to quadruple the penalty from the current maximum of
$250 per day for a first violation is scheduled for consideration
at Tuesday night's town council meeting.
A repeat violation by the same person would be boosted to $5,000
a day maximum from $500 per day.
If the code enforcement board finds that the violation is irreversible
— the unapproved removal of an historic tree, for example
— the violator would face a maximum fine of $15,000. The
current maximum penalty is $5,000.
"That's outrageous," said Stefan Harzen, a member
of the property owners association for the Woodland Estates
neighborhood. Increasing the fines will not result in prettier
neighborhoods, he said. "This is an easy way for the town
to get more money," Harzen said.
