There are always better ways to control maintenance costs than squawking.
What I would do is simply take weed wacking around the historic buildings
off of the maintenance task list. Saves money, saves historic fabric, saves
squawking. I have yet to see a case where letting a little grass grow up
around the building has caused as much damage as wacking.
