EDMOND, OKLA (KOKH) — The Edmond City Manager has implemented Stage Two of a five-stage Water Conservation Plan that will go into effect immediately.

Due to extreme temperatures and a shortage of rain, water reserves are being assessed to make sure they are adequate for firefighters to handle fire-related emergencies.

In Stage Two, residents are required to move to a two-day-a-week lawn watering schedule. This will include one weekday and one weekend day for lawn watering.

The schedule is based on the last digit of the home or business address.

For more information on the watering schedule, residents can visit www.edmondwater.com.
