Did you know your sprinkler system has a magic button called Rain Delay? It skips watering when it’s raining, prevents overwatering, saves water and money, keeps your lawn perfectly hydrated. Most systems let you set 24-72 hour delays and it’s easy to activate on the controller.

Properly dispose of your game day food scraps by placing them in your GREEN cart or add them to your compost pile. If you’re interested in starting your own compost, we have FREE kitchen compost bins available. Complete an application available on our City’s website.

🌧️ When Mother Nature waters, we wait! Please remember that there’s no outdoor watering while raining and within 48 hours following measurable rainfall.

Schedule Change Alert!🚨 Your watering days are changing starting March 1st. Please remember that there’s no watering between 9AM-9PM.

⚠️ Keep Fats, Oils, and Grease out of your drains! When FOGs cool down, they solidify and cause nasty blockages in your pipes and our sewer system. Your sink (and our treatment plant) will thank you! Small actions make a big difference for our infrastructure and environment.

That leftover cooking oil might seem harmless, but FOG is a major threat to our water system. When you pour FOG down the sink, it cools and hardens in the pipes, creating massive blockages that can cause sewage backups in your home and environmental pollution.

What an amazing night connecting with our community! Thank you to everyone who came out! Already looking forward to next year!
