Our water, our responsibility

water restrictions

Our source of water is a deep underground reservoir. According to the Illinois Office of Water Resources, water is being withdrawn twice as fast as it is being replenished. We all need to take steps to use water efficiently. The Village enforces the following regulations that limit when residents use Village-distributed water for sprinkling/automatic water systems.

Follow these watering restrictions [ [link removed] ]:


* Even numbered street addresses may sprinkle on event calendar dates; 4-9 a.m. and 6-9 p.m.
* Odd numbered street addresses may sprinkle on odd calendar dates; 4-9 a.m. and 6-9 p.m.
* All non-addressed properties, including but not limited to subdivision entrances, may water on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; 6-9 a.m. and 6-9 p.m.

You can use a hand-held device such as a watering wand whenever you want. Learn more about watering regulations and get water conservation tips [ [link removed] ] for your home.
