A RESOLUTION OF THE ATASCADERO CITY FOUNCIL
ENCOURAGING THE APPLICATION OF WATER CONSERVATION METHODS
WHEREAS, the State of California is in the fourth year of a
drought; and
WHEREAS, increasing drought conditions have resulted in de-
clining water levels, which, in turn has put an increased strain
on the water system serving the citizens of Atascadero and the
surrounding area; and
WHEREAS, according to the Atascadero Mutual Water Company, the
greatest percentage of water usage is for outdoor watering; and
WHEREAS, the Atascadero Mutual Water Company deemed it neces-
sary to impose a restriction against all outdoor watering, until
further notice, in order to restore the water to a safe level of
storage;
THEREFORE, the City Council hereby resolves to urge the
citizens of Atascadero to voluntarily observe water conservation
methods and directs City staff to apply similar restrictions in
order to assist in the effort to preserve this precious and valu-
able resource on an ongoing basis.
