Water

Sunnyvale’s watering rules, and why turf changes the math

Sunnyvale’s water comes from the North Texas Municipal Water District, and the town stores and distributes it. Sunnyvale assigns watering days by the last digit of the street address: residential addresses ending in an odd number water on Mondays and Thursdays, even numbers on Wednesdays and Sundays, and commercial properties on Tuesdays and Fridays. Nobody waters on Saturdays, and there is no watering on any day between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. The schedule was approved by the Town Council on April 22, 2024.

Checked October 2026. Rules change with drought stages; the Sunnyvale Water Conservation and Resources page is the authority.

Zero water

With strict local ordinances and tiered water rates, artificial turf offers a zero-water solution. A typical 1,800-square-foot lawn can save approximately 99,000 gallons of water annually, potentially reducing water bills by 70%.

Built for the Texas sun

We exclusively install heavyweight (73–111 oz total weight) UV-stabilized turf designed to withstand the harsh Texas sun without fading or melting. Does turf get too hot in Texas?

Town code

Big lots, and one line in the development code

Sunnyvale is zoned for space: its Unified Development Ordinance sets a two-acre minimum lot in the SF-1 district and one acre in SF-2 and SF-3. The same code has one line about artificial turf worth reading before planning anything the street can see.

Development code

“Not visible from public view”

In its general standards for required landscaping, the code says: “Artificial plants or turf shall not be visible from public view.” Required landscaped areas are otherwise to be living plant material, or living plants with hardscape. The code does not spell out which yards that covers, so ask Development Services before planning turf the street can see.

Code § 9.02.542(b)(1)(E)

Lot sizes

One- and two-acre lots

The SF-1 district has a two-acre minimum lot and SF-2 and SF-3 a one-acre minimum, with front setbacks of 80 feet in SF-1 and 70 feet in SF-2 and SF-3. That leaves a lot of back yard for a putting green, a dog run or a pool surround.

Checked October 2026. Each card links to the page or code section it comes from; those are the authority if anything changes.

Sunnyvale assigns watering days by the last digit of the street address: residential addresses ending in an odd number water on Mondays and Thursdays, even numbers on Wednesdays and Sundays, and commercial properties on Tuesdays and Fridays. Nobody waters on Saturdays, and there is no watering on any day between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. The schedule was approved by the Town Council on April 22, 2024.

Check with the town first. In its standards for required landscaping, Sunnyvale’s development code says “Artificial plants or turf shall not be visible from public view” (Code § 9.02.542). The code does not spell out which yards that covers, so ask Development Services before planning turf the street can see. On Sunnyvale’s one- and two-acre lots there is usually plenty of back yard to work with.

For a backyard putting green there are two surfaces: Tour Master, a texturized polyethylene at a 0.63 in pile, and Tour Master Pro, 100% nylon at 0.51 in with a non-directional diamond blade for a smooth, consistent roll. Our Poly or Nylon guide explains which suits your yard. Every line is listed with its specification on our turf range page.
