These days depend on whether you have an odd or even numbered address, and the time of year. Even and Odd address is determined by the last digit of the address number.

Per City ordinance, when installing new sod or landscaping, residents have 30 days during which they may irrigate every day.  In order to prevent receiving a watering violation during this period, residents must first coordinate with the Water Conservation Division.  Although residents will be exempt from receiving watering violations, they are NOT exempt from the applicable water rates.  Please note that rates increase proportionally with increased usage, and increased watering will result in a high water bill.

Please compile your name, phone number, address and any receipts for sod and/or landscape purchases and send the information:

You may also email Water Conservation Coordinator Diana Wagner or call her at (407) 905-3100 x 4009 with any questions.
