Computer controlled irrigation and lighting systems provide precise timing for these functions. All irrigation and lighting is monitored and controlled by a central computer at City Hall, and provides almost instant data on the state of each system. If a leak is detected in an irrigation line, the system will automatically shut down, and inform the system operator of the problem. Sensors in landscaped areas can detect when it rains, shutting off the irrigation system until the soil is dry enough for it to re-start.
Fertilizer application in landscaped areas is closely monitored to ensure that the application stays in the landscape, and not anywhere else. Our contractors use high-quality products, in the proper amounts, to keep lawns, trees and shrubs growing their best.
If you have any questions about maintenance at our parks and beaches, or to report a maintenance problem, please call the Parks and Recreation Department at (760) 633-2740.
