Photos from around downtown Superior
A growing log of the sprinkler waste and hazards residents are dealing with every week. New photos get added as they're taken.
Once this stuff drys and gets etched by the sun, you can't fix it easily.

The town's obstacle course built by sprinklers...

I can't even step outside without getting soaked. Simple to fix - lower sprinkler heads, lower volume or DRIP IRRIGATION or XERISCAPE.

On the face of it, the sprinklers are well controlled. But look at how much gets on the road (and any cars that would be parked). Waste of water, ruined paint.

This is one section of Discovery Parkway. Xeriscape! Almost exactly right (but they went and put sprinklers in this section too - why??)

Spinklers are pretty good here (still couldn't walk on sidewalk). BUT - it's 90 degrees outside and it's 4pm in the afternoon. Hello evaporation.

More wet sidewalks, and all while the landscapers watch on.
