It is a requirement that all landscapers who work in the Village must obtain a Village of Garden City license. In an effort to encourage compliance with this law, we are asking residents to make sure that their landscaper is properly licensed by the Village.  Please review the current listing of landscapers licensed to work within the Village and make sure that your landscaper is included.  If not, please ensure that your landscaper knows that they must have a Village of Garden City Landscaper License before they can work on your property.
