Illinois law requires that home owners keep their yard mowed to a height of no more that 8″ and obnoxious weeds be removed. We have received a number complaints about foreclosed/abandoned homes that have grass over 8″ and a abudance of weeds. It is the policy of Lisle Township that the last known home owner receives a certified letter from the township that if they do not mow their property, the township will contact the mowing and a lien of not less than $1000.00 will be placed against the property and the owner is responsible for the mowing cost.
