Just approved by the city council, beginning June 1, San Diego city residents will have to abide by the following new water restrictions.

Lawn watering for Residents:

• Address ending in odd number – SUN, TUE, WED
• Address ending in even number – MON, WED, SAT

Lawn watering for businesses, condo’s, apartments:

• MON, WED, FRI

In addition, watering can only be performed for 10 minutes, and only between 6 p.m. and 10 a.m.

Vehicles may only be washed by hand between 6 p.m. and 10 a.m., and only with a hose equipped with an auto-shutoff sprayer.
