Effective Monday, June 4, 2018, the City of Buda will return to Stage 1 water restrictions in accordance with the City’s adopted Water Resource Management and Drought Response Ordinance.
So far in 2018, 11.73 inches of rain has fallen in Buda and 4 out of the first 5 months have been below average on rainfall. Over half of Buda’s year-to-date precipitation total occurred on a single day, March 28th, when 5.99 inches of rain fell.
Due to the lack of consistent precipitation, and higher than normal demands on our water production system, the City of Buda has decided to enact Stage 1 water restrictions.
• Stage 1 Water Allowances and Restrictions •
It is recommended that outdoor watering be limited to one of the permitted water days each week in order to promote conservation.
• Additional Stage 1 water allowances
and restrictions are included below •
• Vehicle Washing •
• Swimming Pools •
In addition, foundation watering is allowed on any day and at any time. However, it should not result in pooling or runoff onto impervious surfaces, adjacent property, draining facilities (natural or manmade), sidewalks or streets.
Other nonessential water uses are allowed but all reasonable measures shall be taken to limit the use.
• Violations •
Anyone who violates this ordinance could be fined between $100 and $500 and anyone can report water violations at codeenforcement@ci.buda.tx.us.
