Does the 30% reduction need to be accomplished through landscape efficiency first and then add up alternative water sources, or may this be accomplished through any landscape irrigation means (alternative water sources, irrigation controls)?

The 30% and 40% reduction can be accomplished through any means, including alternative water sources, smart irrigation controls, or just by reducing the overall irrigation needs by adjusting the landscape design. There's no requirement to achieve one method before additional savings can be applied.
