Approve the establishment and initial General Fund allocation for the YardSmart Lancaster Program, a citywide beautification and water-conservation initiative designed to assist property owners in converting front-yard turf into drought-tolerant, low-maintenance landscaping. 2. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to authorize and sign all documents related to the program. YardSmart Lancaster is a City-funded beautification and water-conservation initiative created to support Lancaster’s sustainability, water-efficiency, and neighborhood revitalization goals. The program provides direct grants to property owners to replace water-intensive turf with drought-tolerant landscapes, improving curb appeal while encouraging voluntary compliance with City landscaping and property maintenance standards.
