Water Wise Rules

Water Wise Rules help us use water responsibly. We live in a semi-arid climate and our community is growing quickly. By following these rules, we can keep our landscapes vibrant and healthy while being mindful of our limited water supply.

Let’s work together to use water wisely for the benefit of our community, neighbors, and rivers.

The 6 key Water Wise Rules

1. You may water up to three days a week (Sunday to Saturday). You choose the days.

2. From May 1 to Oct. 15, water before 10 a.m. or after 6 p.m. to reduce evaporation.

3. Don't let water pool on hard surfaces or flow down gutters.

4. Repair leaking sprinkler systems within 10 days.

5. Use a shut-off nozzle when washing anything with a hose.

6. Clean hard surfaces (such as driveways, sidewalks and patios) with water only if there is a public health and safety concern.
