April showers bring May flowers!
And with them comes the time to start getting our yards picked up and ready for the spring planting ahead. Starting April 6th, 2026, you will be able to put your yard waste out on the curb. Please remember to have your yard waste properly bagged or in a designated can with a yard waste label on it. Yard waste labels can be picked up at Village Hall, at 13800 S. Cicero Ave. We know many of you take great pride in your yards, and we appreciate your hard work and efforts to keep Crestwood beautiful.

Please Help Keep Crestwood Looking Its Best
With the recent spring rains and cool temperatures, grass and weeds are growing faster than normal throughout the Village. We would like to remind all residents and business owners to maintain their properties by regularly mowing lawns and trimming weeds.
In the Village of Crestwood, allowing grass or weeds to grow excessively can become a public nuisance and a violation of Village property maintenance standards. Property owners are responsible for maintaining all areas of their property, including parkways and the area between the sidewalk and street.
PROPERTY MAINTENANCE REMINDER
- Grass and weeds should be kept neatly trimmed and maintained at all times.
- Vacant lots and commercial properties must also be properly maintained.
- Regular lawn maintenance helps improve neighborhood appearance, property values, and public safety.
VIOLATIONS & PENALTIES
Properties found in violation may receive notices and could be subject to fines of $200 to $750 and additional enforcement action if conditions are not corrected within the required timeframe.
§ 94.061 HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS
It shall be unlawful for anyone to permit any weeds, grass or plants, other than trees, bushes, flowers or other ornamental plants, to grow to a height exceeding 12 inches anywhere in the village; any plants or weeds exceeding the height are hereby declared to be a nuisance.

Village of Crestwood Parking
Crestwood Village ordinance prohibits parking on any village street between 2:00am and 6:00am. The reason for this ordinance is so police will be alerted to abandoned vehicles or suspicious vehicles that require investigation. This ordinance also ensures that all streets throughout the Village will be open to fire and rescue equipment in the event of an overnight emergency. This is especially necessary in areas where narrow streets can block largefire trucks. We will continue to enforce this ordinance. Thank you for your cooperation with this ordinance. The initial fine for this violation is $75.00. This is a Village-wide ordinance.
PLEASE
BE SURE THAT YOUR LATE NIGHT AND OVERNIGHT GUESTS ARE MADE AWARE OF THIS AS WELL!
