DWP Issues New Lawn Watering Rules

Saturday, 24 July 2010 11:51 Submitted by Wendy Fratecelli

Residents would be able to turn on their sprinklers three days a week -- as opposed to just two days -- under a new water rationing schedule approved today by the LA Board of Water and Power Commissioners.

The City Council still has to sign off on the plan before it can be implemented. Because of the extended drought, DWP customers are currently only allowed to irrigate their lawns for up to 15 minutes each Monday and Thursday, before 9 a.m. or after 4 p.m.

Says Goodbye and Sums Up P.I.C.O. NC's Accomplishments During His Tenure

(Borders, N-Olympic, S-Venice, E-La Brea, W-La Cienega)

Dear Stakeholders, Board Members, Neighbors and Friends,

As of July 15th, I will be passing the baton of the presidency to my successors, MaryAnn Yurkonis and Claudia Bayard. It’s hard to believe how quickly 4 years have flown by. In January of 2006, 18 of us huddled together and took our oath as bright-eyed board members. We rolled up our sleeves and embarked on a journey to better the organization of which we were eager to be a part. There was a lot of work to do. There were challenges and triumphs along the way and now we are a better organization for it. As I look back on the distance we have traveled, I can honestly say we have a lot to be proud of. Here's an idea of what we have achieved since 2006.

Events we organized or sponsored:
