WATER RESTRICTIONS: HERE’S THE LATEST LIST

Because of dry conditions, several cities in our area are under water restrictions.

These cities are asking their residents to “water” their lawns less, and hopefully reduce water usage by 5 to 10 percent.

Because of the water conservation notice, Rosenberg has temporarily closed at least one splash pad.
