WYOMING, Mich. \u2014 Starting May 1, the city of Wyoming is implementing odd-even outdoor water restrictions for homes and businesses to minimize the burden on its water treatment plant during upcoming water main construction.<\/p>\n
The restrictions impacts the following neighborhoods: <\/p>\n
City of WyomingOlive TownshipBlendon TownshipHolland TownshipGeorgetown TownshipJamestown TownshipGaines TownshipByron TownshipCity of HudsonvilleCity of GrandvilleWestern portion of the City of Kentwood<\/p>\n
Under the upcoming restriction, residents and businesses with an odd-numbered address can water outdoors on odd days of the month. Those with an even-numbered address can water on even days.<\/p>\n
The mandate limits activities like watering lawns, landscaping or filling pools. It does not impact water used for drinking or bathing.<\/p>\n
“Municipal leaders ask for the community\u2019s support of the outdoor water use restriction during construction which will increase capacity and reliability,” a statement from the city reads. “In this interim, compliance with the restriction will help avoid an outright ban for everyone on outdoor irrigation.”<\/p>\n
The restrictions will remain in effect through June 15.<\/p>\n
