As California is facing one of the most severe droughts on record, for the first time in state history the Governor has directed the State Water Resources Control Board to implement mandatory water reductions in cities and towns across California to reduce water usage by twenty-five percent (25%).

Most of the City’s golf courses, public parks and street medians are irrigated with reclaimed water; however, the City is currently devising a plan to meet all mandatory water reduction requirements as referenced. In addition, via smart meters, water department officials are able to spot wasteful water users and record how much water is used every five minutes and cellphone technology sends usage data to the cloud.
