Lawn irrigations systems must be installed in compliance with Village Code and State of Illinois regulations.

In addition to a building permit application, a lawn irrigation sprinkler worksheet and a right of way encroachment waiver and agreement must be submitted. All property owners of record must sign the waiver. Contractors must have a current license with the Village.
