Hi all, on September 11 we met with counsel person Fry for the City of San Diego. Our goal was to have her help us rescind the 1 day a week irrigation mandate starting November 1st.
Well everything went very well, she has the same opinion as we do. At the next counsel meeting she is going to push not reducing the 3 days a week, but to reduce run times from 10 minutes to 7 and controllers must be turned off when rain fall is greater than 1/4" and must remain off for 48 hours.
Rain fall for the City of San Diego will be measured at Lindberg field.
We think that what San Diego does the rest of the water districts will copy.
If you have any contacts with any water districts get a hold of them and push to not go to 1 day irrigation, but stay on the 3 day cycle.
Will keep you posted.
Steve.
