(a) Lawn sprinkling shall not be permitted on any day during the period of May 15 to September 15 of any year, except as follows:
(1) Any property that bears or has been assigned an odd-numbered street address shall be allowed to sprinkle only on the days of the month having odd numbers, and only between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 12:00 p.m. the subsequent afternoon; and
(2) Any property that bears or has been assigned an even-numbered street address shall be allowed to sprinkle only on the days of the month having even numbers, and only between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 12:00 p.m. the subsequent afternoon.
(b) Upon the written request of the owner or owner’s agent of any property having a newly seeded or sodded lawn, the village manager may, at his or her discretion, issue a permit temporarily suspending these seasonal lawn sprinkling restrictions upon the premises. The permit shall be issued only upon a finding that it is necessary to preserve and promote the newly installed lawn, and that a hardship would result from the strict application of the sprinkling restrictions. The village manager may impose such conditions and limitations on the permit as he or she deems necessary or appropriate.
(c) Any new/replacement sprinkler systems shall be equipped with a WaterSense-labeled irrigation controller, and shall be in compliance with § 2.5(g) of the Illinois Plumbing License Law (225 ILCS 320).
(d) It shall be unlawful to violate these seasonal lawn sprinkling restrictions.
