What we build.

Before you start in Eaton.

  • Eaton’s 2026 turf rule is aimed at commercial and common land, not your house.
  • On a detached home, your HOA can review backyard turf but can’t ban it.
  • Eaton lots run big, and turf takes the mowing and watering off your list.

    We measure and give you the plan and the price in writing.

  3. We install it

    We take out the old lawn, build and compact the base for your soil, then lay, seam and edge the turf.

Common questions.

Does Eaton’s turf ordinance apply to my house?

No. Section 7-13-2 covers new development and redevelopment on rights-of-way, commercial, institutional and industrial land, HOA common property and multifamily properties with more than 12 units.

Can our Eaton HOA put turf on a new playground or common area?

Only functional turf, as far as Section 7-13-2 goes. Since January 1, 2026, Eaton Municipal Code 7-13-2 bars nonfunctional artificial turf on new or redeveloped HOA common property; a playground, a picnic ground or a sports field counts as functional turf, which that section doesn’t bar. The rest of the town’s landscape rules still apply.

Is my Eaton neighborhood on the town’s irrigation well system?

Governor’s Ranch and Aspen Meadows are: they irrigate from a town-run, well-fed non-potable system. The Town’s treated drinking water comes from North Weld County Water District through the Soldier Canyon Filter Plant.

We also work nearby.

Two water systemsOnly in Eaton

Governor’s Ranch and Aspen Meadows irrigate from a town-run well system.

The Town of Eaton buys its treated drinking water from North Weld County Water District, and that water comes through the Soldier Canyon Filter Plant. Governor’s Ranch and Aspen Meadows also have a town-run, well-fed non-potable irrigation system, which a 2022 town notice described along with watering schedules meant to keep demand within what the pumps can supply.

Town codeOnly in Eaton

Eaton’s turf ordinance, in force since 2026, is aimed at commercial and common land.

Since January 1, 2026, Eaton Municipal Code 7-13-2 bars nonfunctional artificial turf in new development and redevelopment on rights-of-way, commercial, institutional and industrial property, HOA common property and multifamily properties with more than 12 units. It mirrors the state law and reaches no single-family home.

Section 7-13-2 and the state law it mirrors don’t bar functional turf, such as a playground, a picnic ground or a sports field, in a new or redeveloped HOA common area; the rest of the town’s landscape rules still apply.

Ground

Colorado law · the same in every town

On a detached home, an HOA can shape backyard turf. It can’t ban it.

Colorado law says an HOA's landscaping rules may not prohibit artificial turf in the backyard of a detached single-family home, although the HOA can still adopt design and aesthetic guidelines.

How HOA approval works

C.R.S. 38-33.3-106.5(1)(i.5)(I)(A)Added by SB23-178 · in force since Aug 7, 2023

ASSOCIATIONS MAY ADOPT AND ENFORCE DESIGN OR AESTHETIC GUIDELINES OR RULES THAT APPLY TO DROUGHT-TOLERANT VEGETATIVE OR NONVEGETATIVE LANDSCAPES … EXCEPT THAT THE GUIDELINES OR RULES MUST: (A) NOT PROHIBIT THE USE OF NONVEGETATIVE TURF GRASS IN THE BACKYARD OF A UNIT OWNER'S PROPERTY

Read the signed actChecked Sep 24, 2026

  • Homes that share a wall

    For attached single-family homes that share a wall, such as townhomes, Colorado law lets an HOA restrict artificial turf to rear yards only.

    C.R.S. 38-33.3-106.5(1)(i)(I)(A)

  • Front yards

    Colorado law requires each HOA to pre-approve at least 3 water-wise garden designs for front yards, while its artificial-turf protection covers backyards only.

    C.R.S. 38-33.3-106.5(1)(i.5)(II)

  • Special districts

    Colorado law makes unenforceable any HOA covenant or special-district rule that prohibits artificial turf in the backyard of a residential property, except for attached homes and timeshare associations.

    C.R.S. 37-60-126(11)(a.5)

  • If an HOA ignores it

    If an HOA knowingly violates these Colorado landscaping protections, the homeowner must give written notice and 45 days to cure before suing for up to $500 or actual damages, whichever is greater.

    C.R.S. 38-33.3-106.5(1)(i.5)(III)
