Dayton follows local water utility guidelines for landscape watering. Ohio generally does not have permanent mandatory watering schedules like western states due to adequate rainfall. During drought conditions, the local water utility or city may impose temporary watering restrictions including odd/even watering days, time-of-day restrictions, and total outdoor watering bans. Lake Erie communities and areas served by smaller water systems may be more vulnerable to drought restrictions. Runoff and water waste are discouraged but not typically regulated as strictly as in western states.
Drought restriction violations: warning, then fines $25 to $100. Water surcharges may apply during mandatory conservation periods.
