Message from the Chief of Police

It’s that time of year again when the grass is starting to grow.  Please remember the town has ordinances covering the length of grass (exceeding 8 inches).  Grass clippings in the street are not allowed because they wash into the storm water system.  Richlands is a beautiful town and we need your assistance keeping it that way.  If you have any questions please call and ask for our code enforcement officer or you can go on the town’s website and look under ordinances.
