Any other city have projects for converting lawns and water-demanding

is encouraging people to convert water-hog lawns to water-saving

Of course the So. Calif area is basically a desert, which became a
mega-city only by bringing in water, by hook and sometimes crook
("Chinatown"), so water-saving is urgent here.

Just wondered if any other area was experimenting with this.
