You will be responsible to cut the grass under and the two (2) feet around the item. You may choose to maintain your own lawn if desired. Contact your Community Office for a sign to put in your win- dow. If the home you live in has a fence either provided or installed by you, you are responsible for the maintenance of your yard.
