Pearland enters Stage 1 of drought plan

Date:

Voluntary water restrictions are in effect since July 21, 2022 in Pearland.  ·

Based on continually high water usage combined with the ongoing heat and drought conditions the area has been experiencing, the City of Pearland has activated the first stage of their Drought Contingency Plan.

Under Stage 1 of the drought plan, residential and non-residential Pearland Water customer requests are as follows:

  1. Voluntarily limiting outdoor watering between the hours of 9 AM and 7 PM, along with limiting said watering to twice per week on a customer’s trash days
  2. Voluntarily waiting until current drought conditions are alleviated before establishing new landscaping
  3. Voluntarily minimizing and/or discontinuing non-essential water usage

As the city continues to measure water usage and production across the City’s facilities, the Public Works department will be making its way throughout the City’s sprinkler services to align with the watering recommendations above.

The City will alert Pearland residents of any change to the current activated stage of the drought plan when the opportunity arrives.

For more information visit the city website at pearlandtx.gov and follow City of Pearland on social media.

Representatives from the City will also be reaching out directly to major water users in the system to work with them to achieve voluntary water use reductions. Customer Service Representatives are available to answer questions and provide recommendations to any customer.

For assistance, call Customer Service at  281-652-1603.
