Greetings Morgan Hill!
You may have already seen that a local treasure, the Morgan Hill Library, is expanding and construction is underway! The project is an addition of approximately 2,500 square feet of space and will take approximately nine months to complete. The Library's
hours and programs
remain the same during that time. Most of the parking lot remains open and street parking is available.

Have a safe week ahead and be prepared!

Current Watering Schedule
|
|
Water is always a precious resource in Morgan Hill and with this in mind, our permanent watering restrictions have been designed to best manage the City's potable water supply. These restrictions will help us avoid or minimize the effects of drought, climate change and the unreliability of the imported water infrastructure that serves the City of Morgan Hill.
Customers can report water waste
online
or by calling the Water Waste Hotline at 408-310-4195.
