An expert on housing and communal services told summer residents about fines for uncut grass

A summer resident who has received a plot for gardening is obliged to ensure that the territory does not turn into an overgrown clearing. Dmitry Bondar, a public figure and housing and communal services expert, recalled this on Thursday, May 29.

He spoke about the fines for untimely mowing of the grass. Bondar clarified that a summer resident must mow the grass within his plot, and if the territory is within the boundaries of a non-profit partnership, then the requirements may apply to public areas. According to him, special attention is being paid to the fight against Sosnovsky hogweed — a fine of up to 5,000 rubles may be imposed for its spread on the site, depending on the region.

"For non—use of a plot intended for gardening or horticulture, a fine in the amount of 1 to 1.5% of the cadastral value, but not less than 20 thousand rubles, may be imposed," the expert said in an interview with Lenta.Ru .

Fines are also provided for late fulfillment of the obligation to bring the land into a suitable condition — for citizens they range from 20 thousand to 50 thousand rubles. If the site is not being developed, mowing is not carried out, and no work has been carried out for three years, then local governments may issue an order to bring the land into proper condition. If such requirements are ignored, the issue may go to court and the subsequent seizure of the site, he warned.
