I want to congratulate our community, all of YOU for your water conservation efforts! Beverly Hills has averaged saving 30% of our water when comparing month to month from April 2022 through March 2023 to those same months in 2013. That was the city’s goal when City Council called for a water shortage emergency in February of 2022.
How did our community do it? Well, for the most part you limited your irrigation to just two days a week and avoided watering from dawn to dusk, but when you really shined was during these past wet months. When it rained, you stopped watering altogether. The city also stopped watering its parks and green spaces during those rainy months as well and began watering two days a week on April 17.
