West Chester Township has posted a helpful “Need to Know” Guide for homeowners.

http://www.westchesteroh.org/eNews.cfm

Included in the post are general regulations relating to property maintenance such as:

–  All vehicles stored on a property must have current license plates and be operable. 

–  All properties must be maintained free of weed and plant growth in excess of ten inches.

–  All tree limbs/debris piles are prohibited.  Wood kept for personal use must be stacked neatly on the property

– Bushes and trees must be kept trimmed as to not create a site distance hazard.

In addition, West Chester Township is hosting a program about property maintenance, permitting of home projects, impact of foreclosures, working with neighbors to enhance safety and much more. This program is being offered free on April 3, 2013 at 7 p.m. at The West Chester Library.
