The Landscape Commission is responsible for developing, recommending and administering recurring and non-recurring programs which preserve and, where necessary, enhance the landscape environment of Lake Barrington Shores.  In developing such programs, the Commission considers all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the aesthetic and functional purpose of plant materials, their effect on the well-being of other plant materials, on-going maintenance costs, and public safety.

This encompasses all trees, plant growth, flowers and grass in all common areas including the Forest Preserve, lake buffer strip and natural habitat areas.

The Commission representatives advise their Condominium Boards of all unit owner requests for variances involving removal, additions or location changes

_____________________________

In 2001 and upon recommendation from the Landscape Commission, the Master Board approved breaking the property up into 3 zones and bid them out separately.  The multiple zones allowed a greater number of quality contractors to bid on landscaping.Lake Barrington Shores. .Thus far, the results include both high quality landscaping and improvements due to cooperation among the contractors and sharing of "best practices".

Condo Owners can review the Map Below to determine which zone and contractor covers their area.  Contact your commission member with questions and further information.
