Water restrictions in St. Michael, MN — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
Calendar sprinkling is mandatory in St. Michael from June 1 through September 30 under the Joint Powers Water Board (St. Michael, Albertville, Hanover). Even-numbered addresses water on even-numbered calendar days; odd-numbered addresses water on odd-numbered calendar days.
St. Michael shares a municipal water utility — the Joint Powers Water Board — with Albertville and Hanover. From June 1 through September 30 each year, sprinkling is restricted by the even/odd address-day system: even addresses on even calendar days, odd addresses on odd calendar days. New sod and seed installations may apply for a temporary exemption during the establishment period. Watering during prohibited hours (typically the heat of the day) is restricted to limit evaporative loss. Drought-stage restrictions can further reduce sprinkling to two days a week or stop it entirely if Joint Powers reservoir levels fall.
Violations are billed as utility-rule infractions; first-offense warnings are common, with escalating fines for repeat watering during prohibited days. Persistent violations are referred for prosecution under Sec. 10.99 (misdemeanor).
