After pondering the pro’s and con’s of fixing the backflow device for the irrigation system, finally decided to forgo fixing it. Since we had decided last year to remove the vegetable raised beds and to change focus to the maintaining of primarily bushes and trees in the backyard, the need for an irrigation system is no longer cost nor labor effective especially at our age.
When we contacted KUB about removing the blackflow device, their representative said that we needed to send them a picture showing the blackflow device no longer connected to the system and remove the irrigation system. Today, took the required picture and forwarded it to KUB.

After waiting a year to see if the Blue Cascade Evergreen Distylium [Distylium ‘PIIDIST-II’] survived Winter 2023, Larry cut back the bush to the ground:
