What are the steps the City takes to deal when a water waste problem has been reported?
1. City staff will notify the water waster of the reported problem.

In this notice we offer information about how to reduce water waste and how to schedule a free, one-time Water Conservation Consultation to help them fix the problem.

Support from our consultation program is usually all it takes to solve the problem.

2. If water waste continues beyond the educational warning and the Water Conservation Consultation, the City will begin fines to address further ongoing water waste violations.

To report a water issue, visit the Report Water Waste & Leaks page.
