Alternate Day Watering Schedule
In addition to the excessive heat, the summer months brings a higher demand for water usage. Most of this increased demand results from lawn and plant watering and in particular, from in-ground sprinkler systems set to run during the early morning hours. As a result, we experience difficulties in maintaining water pressures in certain areas during this period.
The City of Dearborn Heights is asking all of its residents and business owners to follow odd/even watering guidelines and to alter the times at which they water their lawn. If your home or business address ends in an odd number such as 27 Smith Street, please water on odd numbered calendar days such as July 7th . If your home or business ends in an even number such as 18 Smith Street, please water on even numbered calendar days such as July 8th. If you water your lawn during the early morning hours, consider watering in the evening. For more information on maintaining a healthy lawn, Click Here
