The City of Denton has officially entered Stage Two of its Drought Contingency Plan, effective Aug. 20, after exceeding daily water treatment capacity for three consecutive days. As a result, residents and businesses must now adhere to increased water conservation measures, including a new outdoor irrigation schedule limited to one day per week.
While our water supply remains healthy, these measures ensure sustainable usage during the repair period.

The City remains committed to working closely with residents to navigate these conditions. For additional information on water conservation tips, the watering schedule, and resources available to assist with compliance, please visit Water Wise Denton.
