Attention Water District Residents

Dear Water District Residents:

Due to the extreme hot weather we are having and lack of rain, we are asking our Water District residents to conserve water. Please refrain from extra outside water use such as washing cars, lawn and garden watering and especially swimming pools. With the hot summer weeks ahead excess water use can put strain on our water systems.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Denise Quinn
Town Supervisor
