WATERING TIP: According to research from Utah State University in Logan, Utah, lawns dont really require as much water as many of us are giving them. Lawns should receive 1/2 inch of water every 3 to 4 days. Place water cans or buckets around your yard when you water. As soon as you get 1/2 inch of water in your bucket or can, stop watering and remember how much time it took the sprinkler to put that much water out. Set your timer to only give that much water every 3 – 4 days. You will have to water more frequently as it gets hotter in July and August by watering every 2-3 days. Increasing the amount of water will not help; it will only wash through the soil.
**REMINDER**: Please have an annual test on your sprinkler system backflow preventer done and bring your report into City Hall. This is necessary to ensure that contamination of the water supply will not happen in the event of a pressure loss to the water system. Thank you to those that have already brought in test results!

I would like to thank our Tree and Beautification Committee for all the time and effort they put into helping beautify our city. The Arbor Day celebration was great. The committee planted a new tree and had a wonderful contest with some of the students in our city. All the contestants did such a good job and we congratulate those that won. We were privileged to have their artwork on the front door of City Hall.
The City will again have a contest for the best yards, and gardens. The Tree and Beautification Committee will be around to make the selection sometime in June. We are looking forward to their decision.
I would also like to remind those that have sprinkler systems, our code requires an annual inspection of the back flow device. This is necessary to ensure that there is no contamination of our water supply. Please bring the report into City Hall. Also, beginning this year, the city will require a permit for the installation of any new sprinkler system, or the renovation of any existing system. The permit will require the installation of a back flow device as part of the city’s requirements.
Sincerely,
DaNi.d.D. 00″
David D. Ogden, Mayor
