Spokesman Jim Drake says home and business owners to need to comply with the county’s water use restrictions which limit lawn irrigation to one day a week.


“we’re trying to mitigate the effects of a water shortage right now. and what that means is we’ve going to probably issue warnings. What that means is if we see someone irrigating their lawn between the hours of 10:00 AM and 4 PM when they’re not supposed to they’re probably going to receive a door knocker or a warning.

Drake says if warnings aren’t heeded, citations could follow. The water use restrictions also apply to property owners who irrigate with well water.
