CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. (WINK) — Part of Charlotte County is changing its watering restrictions.
The county says because of the ongoing drought throughout the region, the Southwest Florida Water Management District has declared a Modified Phase III “Extreme” Water Shortage for part of Charlotte County.
Starting April 3 through July 1, watering hours are reduced.
