In an effort to manage water resources effectively and ensure a sustainable supply for all, Conroe will implement new water restrictions starting in 2024. These measures are designed to conserve water, especially during peak demand periods and times of drought. Below is a detailed guide to help you understand and comply with the upcoming restrictions.

Why These Restrictions Are Necessary

Due to increasing population growth and changing weather patterns, water conservation has become more critical than ever. The city aims to balance the water needs of residents with the long-term sustainability of our water sources.

Key Restrictions

Outdoor Watering

  1. Watering Schedule:
    • Odd-numbered addresses may water on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
    • Even-numbered addresses may water on Thursdays and Sundays.
  2. Time Restrictions:
    • Watering is only allowed between 6 AM and 10 AM or 6 PM and 10 PM. This helps reduce evaporation losses during the hottest part of the day.

Car Washing

  • Personal vehicle washing is restricted to the same days as outdoor watering. Use a hose with an automatic shut-off nozzle to prevent water waste.

Landscaping

  • New lawns and landscaping can be watered daily for the first 30 days after planting. Afterward, they must adhere to the regular watering schedule.
  • Use mulch and drought-resistant plants to retain soil moisture and reduce the need for frequent watering.

Swimming Pools

  • Filling new swimming pools is prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the city.
  • Existing pools should be maintained at appropriate levels without routine draining and refilling.

Other Restrictions

  • Use a broom, not a hose, to clean driveways and sidewalks.
  • Decorative fountains must recirculate water.

Enforcement and Penalties

Compliance with these restrictions is mandatory. The city will conduct regular inspections and impose fines for violations. Repeat offenders may face higher penalties and potential disconnection of water services.

Tips for Effective Water Conservation

  • Fix Leaks: A small drip can waste a significant amount of water over time.
  • Install Low-Flow Fixtures: Showerheads and faucets designed to conserve water can make a big difference.
  • Use Rain Barrels: Collect rainwater for use in your garden.
  • Check Sprinkler Systems: Ensure they are working efficiently and only watering necessary areas.

Community Involvement

We encourage all residents to participate in water conservation efforts. Join community programs and workshops to learn more about sustainable practices and how you can make a difference.

By adhering to the 2024 water restrictions, we can collectively ensure a stable and sustainable water supply for Conroe. Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to preserving this vital resource.
