Stage 1 Drought Restrictions Now in Effect 

Due to current conditions and to help preserve our water supply, we have implemented Stage 1 Drought Restrictions effective immediately.

At this stage, we are asking all customers to voluntarily reduce their water usage by at least 5%.

What this means for you:

• Reduce outdoor watering where possible
• Avoid watering during the hottest parts of the day (10 AM – 6 PM)
• Check for and repair any leaks (even small ones can waste significant water)
• Use water-efficient practices for landscaping, car washing, and household use

Why this matters:
Taking small steps now helps protect our water system, maintain adequate pressure, and ensure water availability for essential needs like fire protection and daily use.

Helpful tips to conserve water:

• Run dishwashers and washing machines only with full loads
• Turn off the faucet while brushing teeth
• Use a broom instead of a hose to clean driveways and sidewalks
• Install water-saving fixtures if possible

We appreciate your cooperation and commitment to conserving water. By working together, we can help prevent the need for stricter restrictions in the future.
