Why It’s Flagged
Cal. Civ. Code § 4735
Cal. Civ. Code § 4735(a): Any provision of the governing documents is void and unenforceable if it prohibits, or includes conditions that have the effect of prohibiting, the use of low water-using plants as a group or as a replacement of existing turf, or prohibits the use of artificial turf or any other synthetic surface that resembles grass.
In addition, under § 4735(c), an association may not impose a fine or assessment against an owner for reducing or eliminating the watering of vegetation or lawns during any government-declared drought emergency.
Sample Discussion Wording for HOA Counsel
For Board & Counsel Review
Pursuant to California Civil Code § 4735, nothing in the governing documents shall prohibit the installation of California-friendly low water-using plants or quality artificial turf/synthetic grass meeting reasonable design and maintenance standards, nor shall any fine or assessment be imposed on a member for reducing or eliminating lawn watering during a state or local government-declared drought emergency.
