In response to low river levels, increased water use and dry weather,  the City is bumping watering restrictions up to level 2 red today. At level 2 red: lawn watering is not permitted, decorative gardens can only be watered between 7-9 a.m. and 7-9 p.m. on odd or even calendar dates based on address number; odd numbered houses can water on odd numbered dates, and even numbered houses on even dates, no restrictions on watering food gardens and trees, at–home vehicle washing (cars, boats, trailers, etc.) is not permitted, decorative fountains must recirculate water or be turned off, garden or outdoor hoses in use must have a shut-off nozzle, and wasting water, such as washing driveways, decks and sidewalks, is not permitted.
