This evening our City Council voted to approve an ordinance mandating outdoor water rationing for City water customers. Effective tomorrow, Saturday, August 22, we will be observing an even/odd date & address outdoor watering schedule. Watering is permitted on designated days from midnight to 4 a.m. and from 8 p.m. to 11:59 p.m. Violators may be subject to a $100 fine on their first offense. Please help us share this information with your friends and neighbors!

“Due to the extreme heat and drought conditions, we are seeing record high rates of water consumption,” said City Manager Jim Crosby. “Water rationing will allow us to continue providing water service with no interruptions and, more importantly, will help ensure the product coming out of the Water Treatment Plant remains safe to drink and compliant with DEQ regulations.”
