Nah, a neighboring city has ordinance written with aesthetics in mind too. Like, it’s in the city code that your front yard landscaping has to be congruent with the aesthetic of the street landscaping.
It’s absolute insanity.
Edit: For the actual text
Entry areas, access easements, and driveways shall be landscaped to
create a feeling of identification and continuity of plant materials related to
the plantings around the buildings and parking areas. The primary
entrances to the multi-family development, defined for this section as the
entrances from public roadways, shall have landscaped areas on either
side of the entrance. This landscape area shall be a triangle beginning at
a point where the back of the sidewalk and the driveway intersect and
running a distance of twenty feet parallel with the street, and fifteen feet
from the back of the sidewalk along the driveway, and diagonally
connecting the two lines. These areas may be utilized as rain gardens.
This is the kind of bullshit I have to deal with. The city jerkoffs say I have to have a more “herbaceous” front yard. There is a drought and watering restrictions to days and hours. Yet I need more grass. Clowns.
