Pasadena has completed a set of eco‑friendly upgrades at rotating public art sites on Bonnie Avenue and Del Mar intended to reduce water use and support local wildlife, city departments said.
The Planning and Community Development Department and the Water and Power Department installed a walking path, a dry riverbed feature and drought‑tolerant landscaping as part of the improvements, and planting was completed in collaboration with the MASH program. Officials said the measures are designed to cut potable water use and improve habitat value at the sites.
The city also noted that homeowners may be eligible for rebate and incentive programs if they transition to more water‑efficient landscaping; officials directed listeners to program websites for eligibility details and application instructions.
The segment did not provide rebate dollar amounts or precise eligibility thresholds; for application details the Cultural Affairs Division and the Water and Power Department webpages were referenced in the report.
