Hold off for an hour on the weekends before revving up that lawnmower. Last year, the Dallas City Council, cut back the hours on weekends and holidays for lawn maintenance, car repairs and home improvement in residential neighborhoods.
Permissible hours are 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. every weekend and holiday. (Hours for weekdays are 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.) Make sure your lawn service is aware of the time restrictions. Violators could be fined up to $2,000.
So, kick back and enjoy the quiet on Saturdays and Sundays in the early morning and evening.
