Water restrictions in Johnson County, KS — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
Outdoor watering limits in unincorporated Johnson County are set by the serving water utility (such as WaterOne or a rural water district) during drought; Kansas has no statewide outdoor-watering ban.
Kansas has no statewide outdoor-watering ban, and unincorporated Johnson County does not impose its own schedule — the rules that matter come from whoever supplies your water. Utilities like WaterOne and the rural water districts adopt conservation stages during drought, and those stages carry the actual watering limits. That means restrictions vary by address depending on the serving utility, and they change as drought conditions change. When things turn dry, check your utility's current conservation stage rather than assuming county-wide rules exist.
