Proposed Artificial Turf Policy
The guidelines have been established to help the members select suitable types of synthetic turf as well as installation standards. The Association prepared these guidelines to ensure the aesthetics are consistent throughout the community.
Prior to the installation of the arti- ficial turf, and application and plan to include the location with dimensions of the artificial turf to be installed submit- ted to the Architectural Control Com- mittee (ACC) for approval.
In order to reduce the visual impact of a large area, it is recommended that syntheticc turf with varied blade colors be used.
Installation Standards:
1. A porous weed abatement mate- rial shall be installed below the sub-base level; this material usually consists of plastic sheeting.
2. A minimum of 3-inch layer of sub- base material shall be installed over the weed barrier material; i.e. decomposed granite or class 2 road base material.
3. Sub-material should be a minimum of 80 percent compaction rate.
4. Installation of turf should ensure that the “grain” of the grass blades be in one direction throughout the proposed area. Turf “rolls” should be laid in the same direction and all seams shall be
glued together.
5. Artificial turf should be nailed
down per the manufacturer’s spacing recommendations.
6. Artificial turf shall not be installed directly against natural turf or lawn ar- eas; for example, lawn areas next to neighboring properties.
7. A concrete mow-strip shall be in- stalled to prevent natural grass from growing and expanding into the synthet- ic turf area.
8. Synthetic turf areas shall be con- tained, bordered by a mow-strip, synthet- ic bender board or other edging in order to minimize the exposed edge of the syn- thetic turf and to the fill material used to support the turf. (Rolled or tucked edges are discouraged in general.)
During the installation process, the property owner is to contact the Plan- ning and Compliance Department to set up an appointment with the Asso- ciation’s inspector after the weed abate- ment material has been installed. This is to be done prior to the installation of the sub-base material. A final inspection is to be scheduled with the inspector when the project is complete.
Property owners are required to en- sure that the artificial turf is maintained on a regular basis in appearance. Once deterioration starts to show, the turf will need to be removed/replaced with new artificial turf or approved ground cover.
