Effective Wednesday, August 11, 2010, Hudson Oaks commercial water customers may water trees, shrubs, and lawns with irrigation systems on Wednesday and Saturday between 8 p.m. and midnight. This does not lift the restrictions on any other non-essential outdoor water use, such as car washing. It only affects outdoor irrigation.

Residential households must continue to follow the watering schedule issued last Friday:
*Homes with addresses ending in 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 may water with irrigation systems on Friday and Tuesday from 8 p.m. to midnight.
*Homes with addresses ending in 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 may water with irrigation systems on Sunday and Thursday from 8 p.m. to midnight.
All other non-essential outdoor water use such as washing cars and filling pools is prohibited.

If a customer violates these restrictions, service will be disconnected. The customer must then contact the City to re-establish service. If a water customer violates these provisions a second time, or anytime thereafter, the City will assess a reconnection fee.

Questions regarding this matter should be directed to City Hall at 682-229-2400 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Calling that number after business hours will also provide customers with an on-call number for service reconnection.
