I can\u2019t thank our customers enough for their commitment to conserving water during this<br \/>\nfourth consecutive year of drought.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The huge water savings in June were well beyond the District\u2019s expectations, and may have financial implications if conservation continues at this level throughout the summer. The fiscal year 2015-2016 budget built in a 20 percent reduction in water use due to water conservation. With conservation levels reaching 40 percent, significantly<br \/>\nless consumptive revenue is likely to come in.<\/p>\n<p>In light of the high level of water conservation and in response to widespread customer concerns, District staff will work with the CCWD Board in coming weeks to allow greater flexibility with irrigation schedules, which will help residents preserve the life of their trees and shrubs.<\/p>\n<p>Please continue to follow the Stage 3.5 Mandatory Water Conservation Measures that were put into place by the Board on May 13.
