Overview

Starting in 2024, the City of Fort Worth will enforce year-round water restrictions to ensure the sustainable use of our precious water resources. These measures are designed to promote conservation and efficient water use, especially during peak demand periods.

Key Restrictions

Outdoor Watering
  • Permitted Days: Residents and businesses are allowed to water their landscapes only twice a week.
  • Odd-numbered addresses: Wednesdays and Saturdays
  • Even-numbered addresses: Thursdays and Sundays
  • Prohibited Times: Watering is not allowed between 10 AM and 6 PM to reduce water loss due to evaporation.
Irrigation Systems
  • Smart Controllers: Use of smart irrigation controllers that adjust watering schedules based on weather conditions is encouraged.
  • System Inspections: Regular inspections of irrigation systems for leaks and inefficient spray patterns are required.
Car Washing
  • At Home: Allowed only with a hose equipped with a shut-off nozzle or using waterless car wash products.
  • Commercial Car Washes: Must use high-pressure, low-volume systems and recycle water.
Pools and Spas
  • Filling and Refilling: Permitted, but covers must be used on pools and spas when not in use to minimize evaporation.
  • Leaking Equipment: Repairs must be made promptly to prevent water waste.
Landscaping
  • New Lawns: Installation of new lawns is discouraged. If necessary, drought-tolerant and native plants should be used.
  • Mulching: Applying mulch around plants and trees to retain soil moisture is encouraged.

Exemptions

Certain exemptions may apply for:

  • Newly planted landscapes (30-day establishment period).
  • Vegetable gardens and fruit trees.
  • Public parks and athletic fields (under specific conditions).

Enforcement and Penalties

Compliance with these water restrictions is mandatory. Violations may result in fines and other penalties. The City of Fort Worth will conduct regular inspections and respond to reports of violations.

  • Calling the City of Fort Worth Water Conservation Hotline at 817-392-8740.

Tips for Water Conservation

  • Fix Leaks: Check for and fix leaks in faucets, toilets, and irrigation systems.
