As the weather has warmed up and our yards need water, we'd like everyone to be aware of a few things. When a new automatic sprinkler system is installed or modified, a plumbing permit from the City is required. Every automatic sprinkler system connected to the City's drinking water system requires a backflow prevention device that is required to be tested following installation or modifications and annually. A RP backflow device is especially needed when utilizing city water and canal water provided to some residential neighborhoods. All of this is needed to help ensure our drinking water remains safe. More information about this can be found on the Water Department's page on the City's website. *****ROUNDABOUT NAVIGATION***** • 1.
