§ 5561 Abandoned Plant Removal Notice

• •If you own land with plants or crops that are left to rot or grow wildly, the government can tell you to clean it up.
• •They will send you a written warning, either by mail or in person, and also post signs on your property.
• •If you don’t fix the problem, you could be in trouble for ignoring the warning.

You own a big field with old fruit trees, but you never take care of them. The trees are full of rotten fruit and bugs, and it’s making the neighborhood smell bad.

The government will send you a letter or knock on your door to tell you to clean up the mess. They’ll also put up signs on your land. If you ignore them, you might get fined or face other problems.
