As a result, the District will update their plumbing regulations to specify <br />state-of-the-art UL V ftxtures for new construction. <br /> <br />Low Water Use Landscaping. Xeriscaping is the application of low-water- <br />use/drought-tolerant vegetation in a pleasing, landscaped environment. The District promotes <br />the use of Xeriscape for residential properties through educational brochures and workshops. <br />In addition, District-owned sites are presently xeriscaped with additional sites in planning stages. <br />Recent projects include Well Site Al (this site consists of a residential lot that was landscaped <br />as a demonstration project to illustrate treatments that could be utilized in any residential lot), <br />Well Site 8, Water Storage Reservoir 2, Diamond K Activity Area, and Falcon Activity Area. <br /> <br />Past Xeriscape projects by the District and others include: <br /> <br />· Broadway streetscape <br />· Highlands Ranch Fire Station 17 <br />· Bear Canyon Elementary School <br />· Highlands Ranch Water Treatment Plant <br />· Marcy Gulch Wastewater Treatment Plant <br /> <br />Additionally, many traditional sites within the community have applied the seven <br />principles of Xeriscape which includes: use of more drought-tolerant grass species, soil <br />improvement coordinated to specific site needs, design of high-tech irrigation systems, use of <br />plant species adapted to Highlands Ranch conditions, better control of irrigation water <br />application, and better landscape designs. <br /> <br />More activity is being planned by the District to further its Xeriscape goals. The District <br />intends to continue applying Xeriscape principles on future landscaping projects to reduce water <br />consumption and long-term maintenance. <br /> <br />_ .E!fi~!I!Il~ ,.u~ 1IJI!llla.9~lTIen.k Th~_District uses-A-Yari.ety -<If .drought-tGlerant grasses . <br />- m many common areas. In addition, a three-phase improvement program is under way to <br />enhance irrigation efficiency. Through Phase 1 of this program, the District installed the basic <br />components of an efficient irrigation management system including: <br /> <br />· System metering by irrigation sector <br /> <br />· Irrigation controllers for each park that can function as part of a <br />centralized system or on a .. stand-alone" basis <br /> <br />· Ongoing analysis of data and management of irrigation practices <br /> <br />· Use of evapotranspiration data for low-water-use turf varieties <br /> <br />· Development of a centralized control system <br /> <br />21-66S7 <br />
