Water Wise Landscaping Amendments

Summary

The bill amends the water‑wise landscaping statute to set new design standards for state‑owned buildings and grounds. It limits the amount of traditional lawn, mandates canopy or functional turf covering at least half of a site, and forces agencies to reduce outdoor water consumption. Agencies must report usage, upgrade irrigation technology, and follow timing restrictions on spray irrigation.
