The city I used to work for tried banning mowing certain times of year, and had to back down due to all the lawsuits coming in.

My current city is trying to ban leaf blowers (they're terrible in like 8 different ways), but that's also very difficult.

Township here just doesn't want a shaggy lawn. It still takes them awhile to send the letters. In summer we get it mowed once a month (or once they send a warning), winter we just don't mow. It doesn't grow enough.
