Official news about the City of Cedar Park from the City of Cedar Park

City of Cedar Park returns to two days per week of outdoor watering

Recent rains have boosted the combined storage in Lake Buchanan and Lake Travis to more than 1.1 million acre-feet, which allows the City of Cedar Park to move to a two-day-per-week outdoor watering schedule (technically referred to as the City’s Stage 2) in alignment with the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) Drought Contingency Plan (DCP). However, Cedar Park water customers are encouraged to continue to use water wisely.

Temporary Water Conservation Rate Adjustment suspended

Now that the City is moving into a two-day per-week outdoor watering schedule (technically referred to as the City’s Stage 2), the temporary water conservation rate adjustment will be suspended. The removal of the temporary water conservation rate adjustment will be reflected in the customer’s utility bill starting June 24, 2024 for the prior month’s water usage.

Effective immediately, the City of Cedar Park’s outdoor watering schedule is as follows.

Outdoor Watering Schedules under the City’s Stage 2 New Residential Outdoor Watering Schedule:

Odd addresses water on Wednesdays and/or Saturdays
Even addresses water on Thursdays and/or Sundays

New Commercial Outdoor Watering Schedule:

All commercial addresses (including apartments and HOA-managed property addresses) water on Tuesdays and/or Fridays

Under these Outdoor Watering Schedules, customers may water no more than two days per week before 10 am and/or after 7 pm on either or both of their designated watering days. All customers with an automatic irrigation system should program it according to the newly designated two-day-per-week schedule and watering times. All this information, including answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs) and helpful videos on programming your automatic irrigation system, may be found here.

We encourage everyone to visit our digital metering portal and sign up to see their usage in near-real-time, set thresholds, and set alerts. Please continue to follow Cedar Park’s social media channels and the website cedarparktexas.gov to stay informed about other potential changes in water conservation measures.
