The primary objectives of this multiyear project were to enable large-scale turf replacement projects that may have otherwise faced economic or other barriers to implementation. Through a multifaceted approach, the project team:

• • Partnered with three Colorado communities (Broomfield, Greeley, and Westminster) to develop and design turf replacement pilot projects, estimate water and cost savings based on replacement landscaping scenarios, and conduct community-wide assessments to analyze broader water savings and economic benefits of turf replacement projects.
  • Developed a variety of publicly available reports and resources to assist communities considering or implementing turf replacement and waterwise landscaping initiatives in Colorado and beyond.
