Frisco Moves to Outdoor Watering Restrictions Every Two Weeks
Monday, June 09, 2014
The Frisco City Council has modified the city’s Stage 3 water requirements after carefully considering the long-term needs of the community. The decision to limit outdoor watering using automatic sprinkler systems to once every two weeks on designated trash days came at the urging of the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD). The failure of typical spring rains to make up for low lake levels has intensified the concern and need for additional measures to avoid Stage 4. The new requirement goes into effect June 29. The city is allowing residents to water turf grass and landscaping by hand up to two hours per day except between the hours of 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. City leaders recognize that the new limits will pose a challenge for residents, but they appreciate the willingness of Frisco citizens to step up and continue demonstrating their strong commitment to conserving the region’s water resources.
