During the first part of today’s show we were exploring the ways people can reduce the amount of water and fertilizer they use on their yards in order to reduce their environmental footprint, and not contribute to the harmful algal blooms we’re seeing in local waters.
But, what if you live in a community that frowns upon non-traditional yards -- in other words, yards that don’t feature lush, bright green grass that requires fertilizer, herbicide and plenty of water?

We're joined by Rob Caves, he’s a Board Certified Specialist in Condominium and Planned Development Law with Becker & Poliakoff, to find out more.
