Please be patient as crews cut fast-growing grass down to size

Please be patient as crews cut fast-growing grass down to size

With the current hot and humid weather conditions you can almost hear the grass growing in your yard.Spare a thought then for Redland City Council’s works crews who have more than 19,000 ha of public space to mow and maintain.While crews have been working through the holidays – albeit with reduced numbers so that everyone gets some time with friends and family over Christmas/New Year – the warm wet weather and the resulting fast-growing grass is likely to create a backlog for some mowing and tree maintenance work.The Bureau of Meteorology is predicting a 60 to 65 per cent chance of above-average rainfall in the January to March quarter for Redlands Coast, with temperatures to continue in the high 20s – perfect grass growing conditions.Residents are encouraged to be patient during this busier than normal time as crews catch up with their schedules and customer requests.If the maintenance work is urgent, residents can report it to Council on 3829 8999 or lodge an online request form.
