WATER CONSERVATION
A water shortage shall be deemed to exist when water demand by customers connected to the city water system reaches the point where continued or increased demand will equal or exceed the system supply and transmission capabilities. When demand results in the condition whereby customers cannot be supplied with water to protect his or her health and safety, then the demand must be substantially curtailed to relieve the water shortage.
(Prior Code, § 8-36) (Ord. passed 11-6-1986)
In the event it appears that water demand on the water system may exceed supply and transmission capabilities, the Utilities Director may recommend to the City Manager that voluntary water conservation measures be implemented. The City Manager, following consultation with the City Council, may declare a Stage I water shortage condition advisory requesting voluntary water conservation by consumers. In the event that voluntary conservation measures fail to relieve the demand on the system, the city may advance to Stage II or Stage III water shortage condition. The City Manager, following consultation with the City Council, may with or without the recommendation of the Utilities Director declare that a Stage II or Stage III water shortage condition exists.
(Prior Code, § 8-37) (Ord. passed 11-6-1986)
