Lawn Sprinkling
From May 15 through September 15, the outside use of unattended running water from a hose or sprinkling system, for the purpose of watering or sprinkling of lawns and gardens, is limited to the following:

• Outside use of unattended running water for buildings which bear odd-numbered street addresses is permitted only on the days of the month having an odd number.
• Outside use of unattended running water for buildings which bear even-numbered street addresses is permitted only on the days of the month having an even number.
• The following exception is permitted: watering of sod and/or newly seeded lawns for a two-week period following authorization by the Water Utility Superintendent.

In the event of a water supply emergency, the City Administrator may request a City wide lawn or garden sprinkling restriction.

Hydrant Flushing
Fire hydrant flushing is done twice per year in April and October. Hydrants are typically flushed for two reasons:

1. To assure proper working condition for fire protection purposes.
2. To assure the best possible quality of water to our residents and business.

If you encounter stained laundry as a result of fire hydrant flushing, stop by City Hall or call the Utility Division, (630) 293-2255 to receive cleaning agents.
