Aurora is on NORMAL watering restrictions

 We are on permanent water conservation regulations, so you can water no more than three-day-per-week.

From May 1 to September 30, watering is not permitted between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Aurora Water's Landscape Watering Rules for 2025

• Between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., watering vegetable or flower gardens by hand is allowed.
   
• Hand watering (hose or manual sprinkler attachment) of grass lawns follows the same guidelines as an automatic sprinkler system. The maximum number of days per week and daytime watering restrictions outlined above apply.
   
• Use a hose nozzle and shut-off valve when watering your garden or washing your car.

• Water waste such as excessive runoff, pooling water in landscape or hard surfaces and spraying onto hard surfaces (sidewalks, driveways, gutters, streets or alleys) is not permitted.

• Broken sprinkler systems should be repaired or shut off as soon as possible to prevent waste.
   
• New sod, seed and irrigation systems require a permit. Call 303.739.7195 or click here for a permit application and additional information.

Other water-saving tips:

• Do not water while it's raining or during high winds. Aurora Water offers rebates on rain sensors and smart controllers to help.
  
  
• Check your sprinkler system to ensure it is working properly and not spraying concrete or asphalt.
    
• Sign up for a free Outdoor Water Assessment (June 1- Aug. 31) for a full inspection and recommendations on keeping your sprinkler system working efficiently. Space is limited.

We all need to do our part to save water. Please use water wisely.
