Odd/Even Water Ban Imposed for Wayland
The restricted watering schedule comes earlier than it did in 2012.
The Wayland Board of Public Works announced Tuesday that it had declared a State of Water Supply Conservation as of June 23.
What does that mean?
Wayland is now under an odd/even watering ban.

The ban means "outdoor watering by water users with odd numbered addresses is restricted to odd numbered days. Outdoor watering by water users with even numbered addresses is restricted to even numbered days."
In addition, the Board of Public Works requests that people water no more than twice a week.

Even on scheduled watering days, watering for above ground and underground sprinklers must be done between the hours of 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. At this time, handheld hose watering isn't restricted.
In 2012, a similar ban wasn't enacted until July 2.
