Water Conservation Measures

The City of San Diego has adopted mandatory water conservation requirements, effective June 1, 2009, as part of moving the City to a Level 2 Drought Alert Condition. Level 2 includes many mandatory water restrictions. In addition, all voluntary Level 1 conservation practices become mandatory. These water conservation measures include:

Limiting the watering of lawns and landscapes to three days per week from June through October. Those days are:
- Even numbered addresses: Sat., Mon., Wed.
- Odd numbered addresses: Sun., Tues., Thur.
- Apartments, Condos, Businesses: Mon., Wed., Fri.
Watering only between 6 p.m. and 10 a.m., up to 10 minutes per watering station.

The move to the Level 2 Drought Alert Condition is in response to cuts in water supplies available to San Diego made by the City’s water wholesalers, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) and the San Diego County Water Authority (CWA). The City must cut its demand for water to meet the new supply levels or face substantial penalty rates from MWD and CWA.

Vision for Clairemont
For the past few years, a task force under the direction of the Clairemont Community Planning Group (CCPG) has been developing a "vision" for Clairemont. The task force believes that because Clairemont's Community Plan is more than ten years old, it no longer adequately addresses the changing environment in which we live.

Even though the City of San Diego has recently adopted an updated General Plan and begun the process of revising its community plans across the City, there is currently no timeline for updating the Clairemont Community Plan. Therefore, the CCPG thought that it would be important to have some common interest guidelines in place to follow until such time as the Community Plan is updated.

This is a grass roots effort and has no official standing. However, the Vision's goal is to reflect the community's desires and will assist the City when the Clairemont Community Plan is revised.

The CCPG is requesting input from the community at large, and more specifically, they are requesting public input at its monthly meeting on July 21, 2009. The Committee meets at LiveWell San Diego, located at the North Clairemont Recreation Center at 4421 Bannock Avenue in Clairemont. Please review the draft of the Clairemont Vision Statement and come to the meeting to share your thoughts.
