Water Restrictions

Due to the current dry conditions, we are asking our residents to begin to be conservative in their water use.

 

We are asking residents who wish to water their lawns to do so on an odd/even schedule. If you have an odd house number, you may water your lawn on odd calendar dates. We also ask that you water your lawns during the evening hours.

 

We are hoping that if everyone cooperates with these modifications, we will not have to implement a full blown water ban.
