About 2 acres of turf in Roseville will be torn out and replaced with drought-tolerant plants. City officials approved the plan as drought appeared to be entering its fourth year in California. Annually, the change should save 6.9 million gallons of water and $10,000 in irrigation costs. Sacramento Bee (Calif.), Jan. 22, 2015
