Water is one of our community’s most valuable natural resources. During the warmer months, lawns, plants and trees may require additional water, but using water efficiently remains important throughout the year.
Residents can help conserve water by following the City’s landscape watering schedule, checking irrigation systems for leaks or overspray, and preventing unnecessary water runoff.
