Residents of Litchfield Park are advised to review the latest announcement from Mayor Schoaf regarding the Stage 2 Curtailment Plan Tariff initiated by Liberty Utilities. The Mayor's statement, published on the city's official website, provides critical information about water use restrictions and guidelines that are part of the ongoing efforts to manage the city's utility resources amid challenging conditions.
According to the statement released, the decision to move to Stage 2 is a direct response to the sustained demand for water surpassing available supply. Customers of Liberty Utilities are now required, to adhere to specific consumption limits and schedules for outdoor water use, which are designed to foster more sustainable utilization of this vital resource. The Mayor underscored the harsh realities of prolonged drought conditions, which has necessitated such measures, emphasizing that the involvement and cooperation of the community is essential for their success.
Stage 2 of the Curtailment Plan Tariff includes mandatory restrictions that go beyond voluntary conservation efforts previously encouraged. Residents can no longer use outdoor water sources between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., restrictions aim to reduce water loss due to evaporation during the hottest parts of the day. Additionally, personal vehicle washing at home and filling residential swimming pools has been restricted under the new guidelines.
Although some might view these measures as inconvenient, the Mayor's office has been clear in communicating that the long-term sustainability of the community's water supply is at stake. As Litchfield Park braces itself for ongoing drought, it's incumbent upon all residents to play their part in this conservation effort, this is not just a question of regulation but of communal responsibility and foresight.
For more detailed information on the restrictions and for tips on how to conserve water, individuals can visit the official Litchfield Park website or contact Liberty Utilities directly. Community members are encouraged to stay informed about any future updates and to spread awareness of the conservation measures among their networks.
