Update "Division 7 - Sustainability in Landscaping "of the Irvine Municipal Code of Ordinances and the Master Streetscape & Landscape Design Manual to reflect the latest advances in best practices in landscape design that reduce water use within the City. Encourage drought-tolerant native landscaping, low-flow water fixtures beyond the state minimum code, and daytime watering restrictions on properties throughout the city to reduce water consumption. Use drought-tolerant plants when installing new or retrofitting City- owned landscapes. Limit turf that is not drought-tolerant to recreational fields and lawns, and only in instances where no feasible drought-tolerant alternatives exist.
