Monahans Enforces Obstruction Rules At Intersections
Monahans police will mail notices to property owners who obstruct views at intersections with plants or fences. If violations persist after ten days, city crews will trim vegetation up to the required eight foot clearance or three foot fence limit, potentially altering the owners’ landscaping. The move follows local traffic code sections and a Texas Supreme Court appeal about liability in obstructed-view crashes.
