Kimberley to implement stage one water restrictions

Stage one water restrictions will go into effect in Kimberley next week.

City officials said the rules will come into place on June 1st. Residents with even-numbered addresses can only water their lawns on even-numbered calendar days, while odd-numbered houses can water on odd-numbered days.

Kimberley residents will only be allowed to water between 4 a.m. to 10 a.m. and from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., which officials said are the most effective times to reduce water evaporation.

The City also recommends watering your lawn deeply once or twice a week and avoid watering during hot weather.
