Water restrictions in Fulshear, TX — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
Fulshear's Drought Contingency Plan (Ordinance 2024-1456) sets address-based watering days, time-of-day limits, and graduated fines for irrigation violations during drought stages.
Adopted in 2024 and toughened by city council, Fulshear's plan establishes Stage 1 voluntary and Stage 2 through Stage 4 mandatory water-use restrictions. Under typical mandatory stages, residences with even-numbered street addresses may water Thursdays and Sundays; odd-numbered addresses may water Wednesdays and Saturdays. Higher stages prohibit irrigation from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., ban automatic and hose-end sprinklers, and limit landscape watering to handheld hoses or buckets. Public Works monitors compliance, and the city manager may declare or escalate stages based on supply conditions.
Watering outside designated days, running irrigation during prohibited daytime hours, or operating sprinklers under restricted stages constitute violations subject to citation.
