Las Vegas Parks Go Turf to Save Water | Las Vegas News

Las Vegas is slashing water waste by ripping out grass from 17 public parks, with six already converted and more in the works—saving an estimated 82 million gallons annually. Managed by the SNWA’s Water Efficient Technologies program, most turf is being replaced with drought-tolerant landscaping, though one park will get artificial turf. Residents like softball player Kimbo Tenorio support the move, praising water conservation even if turf gets hotter. The city’s getting a $4 million rebate for the effort, and neighboring cities are following suit—balancing recreation with desert survival.
