Stage 2 Drought Contingency

August 7, 2024

Water Conservation Measures

Attention Residents,

Due to persistent high water usage and strain on our water well, Frisco West WCIDDC is enacting STAGE 2 DROUGHT RESTRICTIONS, effective immediately.

Below you will find the details associated with these restrictions and ways to reduce your water usage.

WATER USE RESTRICTIONS

**No outdoor watering can occur from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.**

  • Customers with street addresses ending in even numbers (0, 2, 4, 6, 8) may irrigate on Tuesday and Friday.
  • Customers with street addresses ending in odd numbers (1, 3, 5, 7, 9) may irrigate on Saturday and Wednesday.
  • Homeowner's Association and common areas may irrigate on Monday and Thursday.
  • Hand-watering, drip irrigation, and soaker hose use is permitted at any time.
  • Recreational water use is prohibited (water used for leisure and entertainment purposes)
  • Washing any motor vehicle, motorbike, boat, etc. is prohibited, except on the premises of a commercial car wash.

WATER USAGE TIPS

  • Check and update your sprinklers. Check for leaks, broken heads or heads spraying patios, the street or driveways.
  • Turn off sprinklers when it's rainy or windy. Look at the forecast and turn off the irrigation system.
  • Cycle and soak. Instead of one long water session, water in a couple of short cycles (5-6 minutes each) with an hour in between
  • Add a smart controller. It automatically adjusts your sprinkler system based on weather and watering restrictions.
  • Install multi-stream and drip. Update to more efficient multi-stream heads, and use drip irrigation for flower beds, young trees, and your home’s foundation.

We will notify you when you may return to normal usage or if conditions worsen and more stringent restrictions are enacted. The board of Directors appreciates your cooperation during this Conservation Condition.
