A. It is the duty of the owner of the lot to continuously maintain all required landscaping. If any required landscaping dies, becomes substantially damaged, or destroyed, it must be replanted in a similar manner within the same growing season that the damage or destruction occurs or no later than June 30 of the following year, whichever is earliest. When landscaping that is part of an approved landscaping plan is removed, disturbed or damaged, or is not maintained, in addition to any other remedy under this title, the city may require the lot owner to bring the landscaping on the lot into compliance with the current provisions of this chapter.

B. Lawn and landscaped areas shall be maintained according to standard practices, which include regular mowing, weeding, fertilizing, and watering.

C. All required screening/buffering must be maintained by the landowner proposing the more intensive use in perpetuity or until there is a change in use that does not require screening/buffering. (Ord. 22-03 § 9, 2022; Ord. 17-18(AM) § 2, 2017)
