Davis County, UT Landscaping Rules: Water Restrictions (2026)

Most Davis County homes get outdoor irrigation from secondary (untreated) water supplied through the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District. There is no permanent statewide law forcing homeowners to a fixed watering schedule; instead the district publishes conservation guidance and, in drought years, sets allocation limits. Weber Basin advises watering no more than about three days per week in mid-summer and not irrigating between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. to cut evaporation loss. In severe drought seasons the district has capped allocations (for example a percentage reduction) and cities may add temporary restrictions, but these are honestly conservation measures and allocation caps, not a blanket statutory homeowner ban.
