Artificial turf is generally allowed on residential properties in Dublin, though front-yard installations may require zoning review for compliance with the landscaping and site-development standards in Code Chapter 153.
Dublin's zoning code emphasizes high-quality landscaping in planned districts. Rear and side yards may use artificial turf without special approval. Front yards and landscaped setbacks in Planned Unit Developments may require compliance with approved landscape plans, and HOA covenants in many Dublin subdivisions restrict or prohibit artificial turf. Drainage must be maintained so installations do not increase runoff onto neighbors.
