Further Out In Water Use At Iowa Falls
Iowa Falls city council tightened water use restrictions at a special meeting last Friday. Domestic outdoor watering is banned except 6 to 9 pm Wednesdays and all day Sundays, car washing by garages and service stations is banned, and water cooled air conditioners must be off except 1 to 8 pm daily. The rule requires water cessation during fire alarms, while requests avoid excessive lawn and car washing. No water shortage exists in Eldora, and the aim is to ease booster pump operation at city hall.
