The irrigation system for your house is owned and managed by you, not The Villages. You can hire a company that will come out every 3 months or so to check for broken sprinkler heads, adjust the heads, and make sure the system is operating correctly, or you can do this yourself. I would suggest that you learn how to program and adjust the main controller in the garage. It is probably made by Hunter Industries. You can go to their website and download the operating manual for your specific controller model. The controller allows you to set the watering schedule, but it is a little complicated. Good luck.
