Pflugerville to enact Stage 3 watering restrictions

The city of Pflugerville plans to enact Stage 3 water restrictions on Aug. 19.

The restrictions were enacted in response to lakes Travis and Buchanan measuring less than 700,000 acre-feet, according to a city of Pflugerville news release. Under Stage 3, residents are only allowed to water once per week according to the last number of their address:

0–1 water on Mondays

2–3 water on Tuesdays

4–5 water on Wednesdays

6–7 water on Thursdays

8–9 water on Fridays

No watering is allowed on weekends, but hand watering with a hose using a hand-held shut-off nozzle or a bucket is allowed from 7 p.m.–10 a.m. Car washing is only allowed at commercial facilities.
