As of May 29 Lavon Lake was 11.35 feet below the full pool level of 492 feet—about 4 feet lower than this time last year, Public Works Director Gary Hartwell said.

The lake is at 480.65 feet. One of the main triggers for Stage 4 water restrictions is if Lavon Lake drops to 475 feet.

The city has saved about 1.79 billion gallons of water since June 3, 2013, when it was placed on Stage 3 drought restrictions, Hartwell said.

In April, the city on average used 17.4 million gallons of water per day, or about 144 gallons per person per day.

In 2014 the city has identified about 700 water violations and performed about 1,100 sprinkler system checkups.
