Outdoor watering allowed only between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Outdoor watering is prohibited during daylight hours. Outdoor watering should last no longer than 10 minutes per watering day. No outdoor watering Wednesday, Saturday, or Sunday. Outdoor watering shall not result in runoff to the street. Observed water waste or street runoff will result in potential penalties if not addressed. Potable water shall not be used for washing hard surfaces, such as pavement, roadways, concrete, and sidewalks, except for public health and safety exceptions. Hoses must have an automatic shut-off nozzle for car washing and outdoor hand watering of plants and trees. Customers, including homeowners and renters, must repair water leaks, breaks, and malfunctions in a timely manner. Restaurants shall only serve water upon request.
