Plano Water Restrictions UPDATE

Effective Tuesday, November 1, 2011 the City of Plano will implement Stage 3 water conservation measures, joining other North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) cities. On-going drought conditions and the temporary loss of raw water supply due to invasive zebra mussels combined with NTMWD operational issues from high water consumption periods continues to require greater regional water conservation measures.

The continually decreasing water elevation level at Lake Lavon makes it essential to move to Stage 3 conservation levels to divert a catastrophic operational failure which will occur when lake elevation falls below 470 feet. On October 18, 2011 Lake Lavon recorded a level of 479.47 feet

Even addresses - Every Other Thursday beginning Nov. 3
Odd addresses - Every Other Tuesday beginning Nov. 8
Watering is prohibited between 10:00am-6:00pm
