Flagstaff credits $1.00 per square foot on your water bill when you convert an irrigated lawn to low-water plants through its Low Water Landscape Program. At least half the converted area must be low-water plants, rock is capped at 20%, and artificial grass doesn't qualify. The city inspects before you start.
Replacing a 1,000 sq ft lawn here also saves about 21,000 gallons of water a year. Use the rebate calculator to see your own number and pick plants that count.
