Reminder to make sure lawn Sprinklers are set for overnight hours
Published on Jun 17, 2024 06:06

The City Department of Municipal Services reminds residents to please check their sprinkler systems to ensure that they are set to operate during the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m.  Also, if there are delay features on your dishwashers or washing machines please set those to operate during the overnight hours. 

Using water for sprinklers and appliances during the overnight hours helps the city to level out the demand for water and avoid high peaks in water demands, especially during extreme hot weather.  Lowering the peaks in demand for fresh water will help control future water rate increases and reduce potential instances of lower than normal water pressure.
