15-4C-4: LANDSCAPING:
Landscaping and irrigation must be provided within the front yard and street side setback areas. Those setback areas fronting upon a public street must incorporate a combination of softscape and hardscape in the landscape, except for those portions devoted to vehicular parking. They may contain artificial turf or synthetic grass provided that it: 1) is not harmful to the environment (such as containing lead based or other hazardous materials); 2) includes a pervious surface to address percolation, drainage, runoff, and stormwater detention requirements; and 3) is incorporated into a comprehensive landscaping design and site plan.
