| Water Restriction Violations |
| Violations page 2 |
| All Pages |
Enforcement actions are taken based on tips from residents and town employees. Actions taken to enforce the water restrictions will be posted on this page and is our way of showing that the restrictions are taken seriously.
Water Department personnel will be looking for violations during the work day and after hours. However, we can not watch every part of town all of the time and rely on reports from concerned citizens, most or which are anonymous. Tips help give us specific areas to check and are often enough to make a difference plus help make the process more efficient. If we are unable to witness the infraction ourselves, we will contact the property owner to make sure they are aware of the restrictions and hopefully avoid the need for further action.
Please keep in mind that in order to issue a written warning or a fine, the reporting party must give us their name and possibly testify in court in the event the charge is contested. We understand that some people are not willing to do this but we can not issue a written warning or fine without a witness.
