posts,and trees. Metal blade edging is not permitted along back of curbing. Grass root runners extending into the
mulched areas shall be cut and removed when the edging is performed. Edging will also be required in all turf areas
around isolated trees,sprinkler heads,valve boxes,shrubs,sign posts,manholes,etc.where they exist. All debris on
streets,sidewalks or other areas resulting from edging shall be removed.No herbicide shall be used for edging.
All sidewalks,curbing and/or gutters shall be cleaned after each service. All sidewalks shall be blown clean,but no
clippings or other debris shall be blown or allowed to be deposited on other adjacent property or accumulate on
right-of-way areas.

twenty inches(120"). Shrubs and groundcovers adjacent to pathways or sidewalks shall be pruned to maintain one
