This residential memo was brought to the attention of the MGCSA yesterday, June 9. A sign of times ahead?
Due to current hot and dry weather, the City of Savage has declared a temporary watering restriction. This is effective immediately. Residents are asked to stop all outdoor irrigation and other unnecessary use of water including washing vehicles with a hose, using water to clean outdoor areas, filling swimming pools, and operating any ornamental fountains. Regular daily water usage including showering, washing clothes, flushing the toilet etc. is unaffected by this restriction. We appreciate your cooperation. For future updates on the restriction, please go to cityofsavage.com, Facebook, and Twitter.
