Landscape Irrigation Clause Samples
The Landscape Irrigation clause sets out the requirements and standards for installing and maintaining irrigation systems in landscaped areas of a property. It typically details the types of irrigation methods permitted, such as drip or sprinkler systems, and may specify responsibilities for regular maintenance, repairs, and water usage efficiency. By clearly defining these expectations, the clause helps ensure that landscaping remains healthy and attractive while promoting responsible water management and preventing disputes over system upkeep.
