🍂 Labor Day weekend is a good reminder: your sprinkler schedule needs to change with the season.

Temperatures are dropping, days are shorter, and your lawn is no longer losing moisture at the same rate it was in July. Leaving your irrigation schedule unchanged from peak summer can waste thousands of gallons a month. Take a few minutes this weekend to scale back your watering days and run times.

Where's Economic Development? Swipe to the end to see the reveal!

Salt Lake County contributes property tax increment to this major project area, where remediation is on track to put 770 acres back into reuse for industrial and manufacturing buildings.

Answer: The Utah Inland Port Authority is almost done with its first phase of remediation for the Crossroads Port (formerly the North Temple Landfill). Putting this property back into commercial use meets the goals of a brownfields clean up and helps the Port Authority eventually recruit more advanced manufacturing to Salt Lake County.

🌵 The right plant in the right place barely needs your help.

Utah-native plants like Apache plume, blue grama grass, rabbitbrush, and cliffrose are adapted to our dry climate and can thrive on natural rainfall once established.

Replacing even a small section of high-water turf with native plants cuts your irrigation needs and adds texture and color that holds up through the heat.
