City of Plainview Winter Watering
Conservation Plan
Now that the weather is getting cooler, the City of
Plainview would like to remind citizens how to make
the best use of water resources during the next couple
of months.
The twice a week conservation water schedule for
residents and businesses is still in effect. The
conservation water schedule is year-round.
stst
On the scheduled watering days, from October 1 through March 31, citizens may water
any time of day when temperatures are above 35°
degrees Fahrenheit.
For businesses, industries, apartment complexes and parks, watering days are Monday
and Thursday. For residents whose address ends in an even number (0,2,4,6 or 8),
Tuesday and Saturday are the designated watering day. Residents with addresses
ending in an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7 or 9) may water on Wednesday and Sunday.
Also, in preparation for freezing temperatures, all sprinkler systems set to timers need to
be readjusted - sprinkler systems ran during freezing weather can harm the system and
make surfaces slick and dangerous.
Besides the twice a week conservation water schedule, the City will also implement other
best management practices including a water conservation retrofit program, a leak
detection and repair program, water loss control measures, requirements for water
conservation landscape for new businesses or industry and universal metering and meter
repair and replacement program.
