League City enacts mandatory water restrictions
LEAGUE CITY, TX (KTRK) -- The City of League City is enforcing a stage three drought contingency plan.
League City is to enact Stage 3 of the City's Drought Contingency Plan on Tuesday, June 17 and next Tuesday, June 25.
The shutdowns are expected to last 10-16 hours each and water rationing is necessary during the shutdowns.
This stage is to be enacted due to on-going construction of the City's largest water distribution facility located at 18530 State Highway 3 in Webster. The construction will require two major shutdowns of the 42" water line, which delivers approximately 80 percent of the City's surface water supply. The shutdowns are scheduled to occur on Tuesday, June 17 and Tuesday, June 24 and are expected to last 10-16 hours each and water rationing is necessary during the shutdowns.
Both dates are subject to change, based on weather or unforeseen circumstances.
Residents are asked to limit water to essential indoor use ONLY on these days. The Drought Contingency Plan lists several mandatory restrictions. Violators could face fines of $500 plus court costs each day that one or more restriction is violated.
Below are the water rationing restrictions for Stage 3 of the City's Drought Contingency Plan:
The City of League City will continue to update residents on www.leaguecity.com, through our Blackboard call system, social media sites, and on electronic message boards throughout the city. The patience of League City residents and businesses is greatly appreciated during this phase of the Drought Contingency Plan.
