The rules of the neighborhood, in other words. When it comes to home improvement projects, some homeowners find their HOA restrictive or prohibitive. This can sometimes include artificial grass installation.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you live in California, you&#8217;re in the clear. In 2015 then-governor Brown signed <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.leginfo.ca.gov\/pub\/15-16\/bill\/asm\/ab_0301-0350\/ab_349_bill_20150817_amended_sen_v95.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assembly Bill 349<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.purchasegreen.com\/blog\/breaking-news-gov-brown-signs-ab-1164-into-law\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assembly Bill 1164<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. These bills bar HOAs, cities and counties from forbidding synthetic grass or turf. The governing bodies could still make landscaping rules &#8211; just not in a way that would ban artificial lawns.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elsewhere, however, you may find that your HOA still forbids artificial grass. In many cases, these rules stem from 70s and 80s era artificial grass that didn&#8217;t look very good. And chances are no one has bothered to update the local rules.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So if you&#8217;re in an HOA be sure to check before you install. If you have any questions, call, click or visit.
