No Texas statute or Guadalupe County ordinance bans artificial turf on a home lawn. Cities shape it through zoning, impervious-cover, and drainage rules, so a large install may need review.
Artificial turf on an ordinary Guadalupe County yard isn't restricted at the state or county level, and unincorporated land has no zoning to limit it at all. Inside Seguin, Schertz, and Cibolo, city development codes can count synthetic turf toward impervious-cover and drainage limits, and some regulate its use in front yards, so a large installation may trigger stormwater or grading review. Proper base preparation, a weed barrier, and drainage are expected. Small residential turf replacements usually need no permit. In full Texas summer sun, synthetic turf can run well above the air temperature.
Ordinary installations face no penalty. Turf that exceeds a city's impervious-cover limit or skips required drainage review draws zoning enforcement, a correction or removal order, and fines set by the municipal code.
