Watering limited to two days a week
Effect March 1 through Oct. 31, property owners may water their outdoor lawns and landscaping only two days per week, according to the City of Morgan Hill. The restrictions are due to the ongoing water shortage facing California and the city’s declaration of a Level 4 Water Supply Shortage.
The season’s new restrictions include:
– Mondays and Thursdays for ODD numbered addresses and properties with no address
– Tuesdays and Fridays for EVEN numbered addresses
– NO watering on Wednesdays
– Irrigation shall only be scheduled before 9am or after 7pm
– Prevent runoff in any watering cycle
– Each valve or zone shall run for a maximum of 15 minutes in any one day
– No watering of non-functional turf at commercial, industrial and institutional properties
– Excessive use, loss or escape of water through breaks, leaks or other malfunctions in the water user’s plumbing or distribution system for any period of time after such escape of water should have reasonably been discovered and corrected and in no event more than ten (10) days of receiving written notice from the city, is prohibited.
