Subject: Re: Current Water Situation
At what level do we reach the mandatory water restrictions?
What happens when we exceed our water usage?
How do we enforce water restrictions?

Mayor and Council – We are approaching our water usage limitations. Record Molalla River low flows for this time of year from 1940 were 106 cfs. Today we are at 99cfs. We have not reached a point where we need to institute a mandatory water restriction but we will be getting conservation information out through our website, the Pioneer, Library and other avenues. For example we may begin to restrict the hours of the splash pad and reduce our irrigation of our parks. Some general conservation ideas could be the following:
· Shower timers
· Reduce lawn irrigation
· Only use a carwash
· Sweep your porch instead of using a pressure washer
· Brownest lawn award!
Let me or Jennifer Cline know if you have questions.
