Water conservation update

With higher temperatures ahead, water use will certainly increase.

To help conserve this precious resource, the City of Lakewood recommends residents continue to follow these best practices:

• No landscape watering within 48 hours of rainfall.
• No hosing off sidewalks, driveways and other hardscapes.
• No sprinkler runoff to sidewalks, gutters and other landscape.
• No washing of cars and equipment, except from a bucket or hose with an automatic shut-off nozzle. 

In addition, in commercial and industrial settings, the statewide restriction remains against the watering of "non-functional" turf (solely ornamental and not used for recreation or gatherings). This rule does not apply to residential water users.
