The City of Newton has been enforcing more environmental code violations lately. For all of 2023, it targeted 244 environmental violations for weeds. That number increased to 682 for this year up to the end of September, a 180 percent increase. The Newton City Commission saw a presentation of nuisance enforcement at its Oct. 8 meeting. “We are definitely trying to do what you asked us to do to send more notifications out to people,” City Engineer Suzanne Loomis said.
