Contra Costa County Ordinance 720-2.006 states no one shall maintain weeds exceeding 18 inches in height. It is not only an eyesore but can promote fire danger. The fire department takes the lead in fire hazard abatements (tall grass) and Code Enforcement the lead in public nuisances (weeds and overgrown brush).
