Drought Update
Even with all of the snow the District received this winter, it is not known yet what effect the Spring weather will have on water supplies. Therefore, the Water Restrictions and Guidelines set forth by the Board in July, 2006 are still in effect.
BE WATERWISE. CONSERVE A PRECIOUS RESOURCE.
In a special meeting July 5, 2006, the Board of Directors implemented watering restrictions effective as of the meeting. See the resolution for details
