NON-FUNCTIONAL GRASS BAN
WHAT IS THE BAN?
A Nevada law outlaws about 31% of the grass in the Las Vegas area. As of July 7 2021 The SNWA estimates that there is approximately 5,000 acres of nonfunctional turf throughout Southern Nevada. The legislation prohibits the use of Colorado River water to irrigate nonfunctional grass on properties that are not zoned exclusively for single family residences.
WHAT IS NONFUNCTIONAL GRASS?
If the only person that uses the grass is pushing a lawn mower, it is probably nonfunctional. According to the SNWA it "…is grass that no one uses for sports, picnics or other recreational activities. Some areas of nonfunctional turf are simply narrow strips grass bordering parking lots, walkways, and sidewalks.” They can show up at office parks, commercial properties, within Homeowner Associations and at multifamily properties.

The SNWA grass rebate program has a few requirements including at least 50% canopy coverage based on their "values" for each plant.
Some of these plants typically get hedge trimmed.
When possible we discuss possible reoccurring costs with our customers so they can choose weather or not they want to have bushes hedge trimmed or not.
