Overgrown Grass

Reported via desktop in the Verge Cutting category by Joseph Burnett at 19:55, Thu 10 July 2025

Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 916647.

Behind my house there is a patch of grass that is overgrown. The strip beside it has been cut but not the one behind my house. The weeds are growing under my brickwork and into my garden - causing me problems.
