Erie Weed Ordinance Heads To Court Challenge
Erie moves to test its weed ordinance in court after two residents were cited for violations. Lawyer Will J. Schaaf representing J Robert Baldwin asks for a one week delay to prepare a brief while George Harris, owner of Harris Homes Inc, fails to appear. The suit contends the ordinance is invalid and beyond city authority, claiming weed growth is not a nuisance or health risk and that the law defining weeds is too broad. The ordinance defines weeds as rank growth causing odors or pollen or breeding insects and mosquitoes, and a nuisance when over one foot high. Mayor/health officials pursue further summonses against Baldwin and Harris.
