Whenever the town’s Board of Commissioners finds that a potential shortage of water supply is indicated, it shall be empowered to declare by adoption of a resolution that voluntary conservation conditions exist, and that the Water Director shall, on a daily basis, monitor the supply and demand upon that supply. In addition, the Board is authorized to call upon all water customers to employ voluntary water conservation measures (see § 51.11 of this code) to limit water use (especially Class 3 users) and eliminate the waste of water. This resolution shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the areas which qualifies under G.S. § 1-597, and may be publicized through the general news media or any other appropriate method of making such resolutions public.
