14.22.020 - Water Conservation Program.
A. This chapter establishes a Water Conservation Program which uses five stages to address conditions and needs. The Water Conservation Stage shall be set by City Council action. All normal water efficiency programs and water conservation regulations shall remain in force during any stage, unless the City Council directs otherwise. B. Stage One represents normal conditions; Stages Two, Three, Four, and Five represent potential and actual shortages. Stages Two, Three, Four, and Five may be triggered by a local or regional water supply shortage; production, treatment, transmission, or delivery infrastructure problems; limited or unavailable alternative water supplies; or other circumstances. C. Stage one conservation measures are voluntary, and will be encouraged through public outreach, education, and awareness measures by the City. D. Stages Two, Three, Four, and Five conservation measures are mandatory, and violations may be subject to criminal, civil, and administrative enforcement.
