Watering Schedule

Residential

Water is a limited resource in our semi-arid, high-altitude climate. Using water wisely not only saves you money, but it’s the right thing to do. 

Mandatory summer watering schedules 
May 1 through Sept. 30

Residential watering is permitted every-third day before 8 a.m. or after 8 p.m. on your designated watering day. All water customers are assigned a square, circle, or diamond, identified by the last number of the street address. Your symbol identifies your prescribed watering days.

Certain streets in Founders Village follow a different schedule and residents are notified each year if this schedule affects their watering day. 

Failure to follow the watering schedule or incurring water waste can result in a watering violation.

Nonresidential

Nonresidential properties must adhere to a three-day-a-week watering schedule. This schedule is similar to what is being followed by residential customers, and will help Castle Rock Water manage peak demand during irrigation season.
