Recycled Water Rules

St. Johns County's Land Development Code requires any new subdivision built around a golf course to install reclaimed water lines so the course can be irrigated with recycled water instead of potable supply. If a reclaimed water utility is not yet available nearby, the developer must still install the lines as capped dry lines, sized and ready for connection once service reaches the site.
