Important water supply notice. Due to the elevated drought conditions to severe, a dramatic increase in water use and a rapid decrease in ground and surface water levels, it has become necessary to prohibit ALL lawn watering effective immediately. We continue to receive very little rain to help recharge our aquifers. It is Imperative that everyone turn off all automatic lawn irrigation systems, and stop all forms of lawn watering. This is necessary to ensure a safe and adequate supply for our daily essential needs and for firefighting capabilities. All other non-essential use is still limited to before 9AM and after 5PM. These restrictions only pertain to users of the municipal water system. We need everyone’s strict adherence and cooperation in this important matter to sustain the town water supply through these drought conditions.
