Although I can't answer the question of why the Yucca is or was, turning Yellow, what I can say for certain is that Yuccas require very little water and can even go months, or at least many weeks without being watered or rained on. And it should be stated here that if Yuccas are watered or rained on regularly (like, every day or several times a week), they will actually begin to look like crap and acquire black spots all over their leaves. I know this because I recently worked in a nursery for 22 months and have completed a Certificate II in Horticulture.
P.S. Yuccas also require full sun and are believed by me to have originally come from the harsh, dry deserts of the States of Arizona and Nevada, USA - much like Joshua Trees.
