Water Management for HOAs

• Learn how to reduce water use, save money and optimize sustainable watering practices.
• Receive a landscape watering budget to compare how much you use with what you should be using.
• Get data based on your community's landscapable area, landscape characteristics, local weather, historical water use, and current watering practices.
• Identify potential leaks with continuous usage alerts.
• Coordinate with your landscaper by giving them access to Waterfluence.
• Free for HOAs. 

You can only manage what you monitor! 

Watch our video for an overview of the program (run time is less than 5 minutes). 

1. Have the president of the HOA sign up via the online application. The current HOA president must sign the document and agree to the terms and conditions on behalf of their HOA. 
2. You will receive a welcome email from Waterfluence directly with guidance on how to log in.
3. Once your HOA is added to Waterfluence, you will have the option to give your landscaper and community manager access to your water use data.

1. Fill out the online application. It must be signed by the current board president.
2. The president will receive a welcome email from Waterfluence that will provide instructions on how to create an account and log in for your HOA.

Once the account is created on the Waterfluence website:  

1. Consider adding your landscaper, community manager or landscape committee members under the tab called “People." An email address is required for each additional person you wish to add. 
2. Review the map of your property under the tab called "Map" and make sure it is correct. All areas that the HOA is responsible for watering should be mapped or there will be inaccuracies in watering recommendations. As an approved representative for your HOA, you can update the maps to reflect the correct information. If you need help, contact conserve@mesaaz.gov.
3. Review the guide, How to Read Your Landscape Water Budget(PDF, 161KB). This will help you to interpret your water use budget (recommended versus actual usage) on the tab called "Outdoor."
4. Take action! Identify any water use that is above and beyond the recommended amount and take action to correct the excess usage. For example, is there a leak? Does the controller need adjustment? Work with your landscaper to take the necessary steps. 

Smart Meters and Waterfluence? Watch the video to learn more!

Waterfluence can show you daily and hourly water usage information in the portal from your smart water meter(s). Check out the “Insights” tab in Waterfluence to see any information about current leaks.

Use these ideas to improve your water management: 

• Review the map of your property under the tab called "Map" and make sure it is correct. All areas that the HOA is responsible for watering should be mapped or there will be inaccuracies in watering recommendations. As an approved representative for your HOA, you can update the maps to reflect the correct information. If you need help, contact conserve@mesaaz.gov.

• Read our guide on How to Read Your Landscape Water Budget(PDF, 161KB). This will help you to interpret your water use budget (recommended versus actual usage) on the tab called "Outdoor."

• Share the information with your landscaper. (You can provide them access so they can log in to Waterfluence and see the same data you are seeing.) They are an essential partner in your water management.

• Check your irrigation system for leaks(PDF, 322KB). Unintended usage costs money and wastes water. 

• Check the "Insights" tab in Waterfluence to see if there are any active leaks or any recently repaired leaks. You can also view your hourly and daily usage under the "Outdoor" tab. 

• Evaluate your irrigation controller: 

• How is the controller being used?
• Do you have a smart controller that takes weather and landscape type into account? Or is it manually adjusted?
• Does the schedule account for seasonal changes or is it left to “set it and forget it?”
• Learn about how much and how often to water with our interactive watering guides.

• Use these helpful guides from the Environmental Protection Agency to help you make better sense of your usage.

Take Action to Achieve Outdoor Water Efficiency

HOA Outdoor Water Efficiency Roadmap 

• Consider removing grass that is non-playable and difficult to maintain. Learn about our grass removal and irrigation equipment incentives. 

Please review the program requirements below.  

1. Eligibility. Only single-family homeowners associations (HOAs) that have at least one dedicated landscape meter are eligible to participate. RV parks, motorhome parks, manufactured home parks, and others are not considered single family homeowners associations through this program. 
   
   
2. Report. Waterfluence will provide a report for each program participant’s site containing site characteristics, historical water use, a water budget range based on site characteristics and daily local weather during that billing cycle, customized messaging, and peer-based irrigation performance metrics.
   
   
3. Aerial map. Each site map will include separate measurements of irrigated grass, irrigated shrubs/trees, overseeded grass, and water features.
   
   
4. Contact info. Waterfluence and Mesa staff will maintain and manage site contacts to maximize program engagement.
   
   
5. Messaging. Mesa will send messages to program participants regarding other landscape programs, events, useful hyperlinks, or irrigation policies. Waterfluence will also directly message the HOA with updates.
   
   
6. Security. Waterfluence continuously maintains the features and security of its online platform software.
   
   
7. Authorized Representative. The HOA Board President is considered the authorized representative and will be given access to the Waterfluence platform via email login.
   
   
8. Additional Representatives. Each program participant representative will have access to view their site-specific information via the Waterfluence online platform. Representatives can authorize third parties such as HOA board members, landscape contractors and community managers to access their site information.
   
   
9. Agreement Length. This agreement will remain between Mesa, Waterfluence, and program participant HOA until the HOA terminates the agreement by providing written notice to Mesa.

Please Note: Program is subject to change at any time. 

1. How much does this cost? The program is free to HOAs.
   
   
2. Why does the city offer Waterfluence? Waterfluence has been a proven water conservation tool in many parts of the country, including in the Valley of the Sun. HOAs have an opportunity to learn about and act on better water management.
   
   
3. It has been a hot and dry year. My landscaper says our water usage is high because of the weather and that Waterfluence is not accounting for the weather. Waterfluence uses real time daily weather from a local weather station through AZMET Arizona Meteorological Network (AZMET) and that information is included in the scientific calculations based on square footage and other landscaping data. For more information on how your specific water budget is calculated, go to the tab called “Map” on the Waterfluence website and scroll down to the part titled “Water Budget.”
   
   
4. My water meter is read on different days each month. How does that work with Waterfluence? The Waterfluence water budget is based on daily weather data exactly matching the days in the meter read period.
   
   
5. I’m a community manager. Can I register the HOA I manage? No, only the current board president as listed on the Arizona Corporation Commission for the HOA can register to join Waterfluence. That board president can assign access to others once they are registered for the HOA, including other board members, community managers and landscapers.
   
   
6. The map is not correct. How do we fix it? The registered user should be able to go to the tab for the map and click the button “Edit Map” to make adjustments. All maps will be reviewed by Waterfluence before being updated. Once it is updated, the water budget (recommendation) will be updated as well to reflect the proper size and landscape type(s) of the property.
   
   
7. Why is there a dollar amount on the “Outdoor” tab saying we have lost so much money? Note that this figure is not something you need to use as an exact amount. It is a reminder about how much excess usage occurred in the last twelve months. It does not account for any under-budget usage, so it does not indicate any savings when the water use was lower than the recommendation. 
   
   For example, if in March you used an excess above the recommendation of 100,000 gallons, your “Lost $” would indicate the cost of those 100,000 gallons. If you then used 100,000 gallons below your water budget recommendation in April, that “Lost $” figure would not go down to indicate the reduction in water use. However, if you have another month where you go over your water budget, your "Lost $" will continue to go up. 
   
   
8. Our HOA has more than ten acres of grass. What does that mean? You may need to contact the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) to determine if your property is a turf-related facility subject to conservation and reporting requirements under Phoenix's Active Management Area (AMA) Plan and ADWR requirements. See the AMA Industrial Program Rules and the Phoenix AMA Plan for more guidance. 

Eligible Customers: 

Commercial/business properties, homeowners associations, multifamily properties, churches, and schools that are Mesa commercial meter water customers who use potable water to irrigate common area landscaping are eligible. The applicant must be the owner.

Proof of authority to sign on behalf of the property is required. For HOAs, the board president is the authorized representative, as verified by the Arizona Corporation Commission. Authorized representative must supply Mesa with a corporate resolution or copy of board minutes to prove legal authority to act on behalf of the applicant organization.

Program Requirements: 

1. Funding. Annual program continuation is not guaranteed, and applications are subject to funding availability.

2. Projects. This program is for future grass removal and conversion projects only. 

3. Minimum Size. Applicant must plan to remove a minimum of 2,500 square feet of grass and comply with the detailed program requirements listed in this document for that landscaped area. 

4. Incentive Amount. The incentive offered is $2/square foot of grass removed per all approvals. The maximum incentive for each property is $50,000 for Grass-to-Xeriscape in a 12-month period.   

5. Grass Condition. Grass must be relatively healthy at time of application and initial inspection. Under this program ‘healthy’ shall be defined as routinely irrigated and manicured with an average coverage of 70 percent (70%). Areas of bare soil or weeds must be less than 30% of the area of grass removal. Partial acceptance of grassy areas is possible, per our discretion at time of initial inspection. Areas of grass that are a mix of poor and healthy conditions may qualify for partial inclusion in the conversion area. For example, a park with a total of 5,000 square feet of grass that only has 3,000 square feet of healthy grass may qualify for the 3,000 square feet, while the 2,000 square feet of grass in poor health would be ineligible.  

6. Ineligible Grass. Any grass areas that are watered by wells or flood irrigation water are not eligible. Only landscapes watered by potable water that can be measured through a Mesa water meter are eligible. 

7. Pre-Inspection. Environmental and Sustainability Department (ESD) staff must inspect the property before work begins (no grass can be removed before Mesa approval). 

8. Area Measurement. ESD staff will measure the area via Maricopa County Assessor’s website maps and/or in person inspections. These measurements will be considered final. Measurements provided by the applicant will be reviewed but will not be the final measurement used for the incentive calculation. Eligible reimbursement includes areas for which the HOA is responsible to water and maintain as required by CCRs, landscape contracts, or law. 

9. Replacement Plants. The converted grass area must be replaced with low-water-use plants that, when fully mature, will provide a plant canopy coverage of at least 50 percent (50%) of the area (grass cannot be replaced with just artificial turf or rock). All new plants must be on the Arizona Department of Water Resources Low-Water-Use/Drought-Tolerant Plant List. A subset of all allowable low-water-use plants is available in a user-friendly format at www.amwua.org/plants. Adding any high water use plants (not on the Low-Water-Use Plant List) is prohibited. The trunks and stems of new or existing low-water-use trees and plants must be located in the ground in the converted area to count towards the coverage requirement. 

Two plants from the Low-Water-Use Plant List are not allowed in this program because they are considered invasive: Fountain Grass (Pennisetum setaceum) and African Sumac (Rhus lancea).

10. Canopy Calculation. Plant canopy square footage (coverage) is calculated with the formula for area of a circle. Individual plant canopy coverage amounts for most eligible plants at maturity are available on the Plant Square Footage Calculator (click on “Commercial Customers”).

11. Plant Size. Shrubs, groundcovers, and accent plants will be no less than 1 gallon in size at installation. Trees must be a minimum of 15 gallon in size at installation. More details are available in the Mesa Zoning Ordinance (MZO) Section 11-33. Existing trees, to remain, will count toward these requirements. (See Item 9). 

12. Artificial Turf.  Because artificial turf may cause an impediment to infiltration, applicant may need to provide additional information about the artificial turf product and design for staff review as part of the application process.  Additionally, applicant may be required to submit a report from a drainage engineer through the permit process to document how the artificial turf affects drainage, and how any additional runoff will be retained at the property. 

13. Unallowed Items. Spray irrigation and non-pervious materials (such as black plastic sheeting) are not permitted in the converted area. A concrete surface cannot take up more than 25 percent (25%) of the converted area. 

14. Mulch. The new landscape must be covered with a minimum of a 2” deep layer of organic or inorganic mulch (such as granite or rock). Other materials may qualify. 

15. Right-of-Way. Adjacent right-of-way areas may qualify. Additional processes, permits, and reviews will be required. Eligible reimbursement includes areas for which the applicant is responsible to maintain right-of-way as required by CCRs, landscape contracts, or law.  

16. Conflicting Authority. The grass removal or installation of the Xeriscape must not conflict with other Mesa landscaping requirements as prescribed by existing codes, ordinances, policies or procedures. 

17. W-9 Form. Applicant must supply a W9 form with taxpayer identification number (TIN) and/or EIN to receive payment.

18. Pre-Work Approval. Once all approvals are granted Mesa, applicant will receive notification of approval and a notice to proceed. Work cannot begin until this approval is granted. 

19. Work Period. Applicant has 9 months or 270 calendar days to complete the project once all Mesa approvals are issued. Failure to follow this schedule will result in disqualification. 

20. Smart Controller. Applicant is strongly encouraged to install a smart controller if one is not in use already. Check out the Irrigation Equipment Incentives section below for eligible equipment and incentives.

21. Maximum Payment. Maximum of $50,000 per property per rolling 12-month period for completed project(s).

22. Historic Areas. Historic area requirements may apply. 

23. LID. Please consider using low impact development (“LID” – the beneficial use of stormwater) in your design. 

24. Dust Control. Applicant shall take appropriate measures to ensure dust is controlled during the landscape project. Maricopa County Air Quality may require a permit.

FOR HOAs 

1. HOA must be owner of the property and a Mesa water customer.   

2. The homeowners association must have a unique tax ID number or taxpayer identification number.   

3. The applicant/authorized representative must be the president of the homeowners association as listed on the most recent Arizona Corporation Commission report online.

The incentive is $2/square foot of grass removed per all approvals. The maximum incentive for each property is $50,000 for a Grass-to-Xeriscape project in a 12-month period.  

Applicant must remove a minimum of 2,500 square feet of grass and comply with the detailed program requirements listed on this webpage for that landscaped area to be eligible for the incentive. 

Incentives are for future grass conversion projects only.

HOAs enrolled in Waterfluence may have an opportunity to participate in a free landscape assessment of your current irrigation system. Overall water usage and the potential to maximize savings will dictate which HOAs are eligible. If selected, a landscape professional will identify inefficiencies and provide concrete suggestions for water-saving improvements specific to your HOA.

To be considered for an assessment, you must:

1. Enroll in Waterfluence.
2. Have at least one dedicated landscape meter.
3. Have the HOA president complete the online application form to indicate your interest in participating in the program. Applications will be evaluated for eligibility.
4. If selected, enlist your landscaper and community manager to work directly with the irrigation expert assigned to your property. 

Water effciency is critical not only for the environment but for your budget! Water management, in particular irrigation systems, can make the difference between efficient use of water and wasted resources. Plus, saving water saves money. Water conservation is everyone’s business!

Please have your board president complete the online application form to request a landscape assessment.  Applications will be evaluated for eligibility. If selected, a landscape assessment contractor will be assigned to your HOA to perform the work.

The assessment will take place onsite to evaluate your HOA common areas. An HOA representative must accompany the contractor during the property assessment. You will receive a report that outlines recommendations to improve your irrigation system and lower your water use.

This handy calculator will help you create your list of plants and trees for your Grass-to-Xeriscape Landscape Incentive. As a reminder, you need 50% low-water-use plant canopy coverage in your conversion area.

The calculator helps you estimate how much water you should be using on your landscape each month. Don't set your water budget just by what you spent last year.
