The sprinl(ling ban will be in effect from Me- <br />morial day until after Labor Day. <br />Residents may water on odd numbered days if their address ends in an odd <br />number, and on even numbered days if their address ends in an even number. <br />The sprinl(ling restriction includes no waterin~ between 10:00 a.m. and <br />8:00 p.m. since a significant amount of water is lost due to evaporation during <br />the hot portions of the day. Homeowners with automated systems are strongly <br />encouraged to program them to operate after 10:00 p.m. This minimizes evapo- <br />ration and lessens peak demand on the system. <br />In addition to the residential sprinkling ban, the city is in the process <br />of implementing an irrigation policy that is specific to townhouse, multifam- <br />ily residential and commercial connections to the municipal water supply that <br />requires that: <br />· All irrigation systems must install an approved backftow device. <br />· All irrigation systems must include a Rain Sensor device to prevent irriga- <br />tion systems from operating during rain events. <br /> <br />Slowing the Flow <br />of Junk Mail <br /> <br />Are you getting inundated with <br />junk mail?
