MANDATORY Odd-Even Lawn Watering, Morning and Evening Hours Only

Effective Friday evening, August 10, Cheney residents, businesses, and apartments may resume watering lawns on a mandatory odd-even schedule, but only during morning and evening hours. The mandatory lawn watering shutdown on August 8 was necessary to replenish the city’s five reservoirs, which had been reduced to critically low levels.

Mandatory Odd/Even Watering Schedule: Addresses ending in an odd number may water on odd calendar dates, and addresses ending in an even number may water on even calendar dates. If your automatic sprinkler timer does not have an odd/even program, schedule your usage to every other day or 3-4 days per week. This includes all residential, commercial, and apartment properties.
Lawn Watering Times: Watering times are 5-10 a.m. OR 7-11 p.m.
Amount of Water: Restrict the amount of time you run your lawn sprinklers.
Gardens and Flowers: Watering of gardens and flowers is approved, 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. Use a soaker hose, drip system, or water by hand. Apply mulch.

Please use water wisely.
