Water restrictions in West Sacramento, CA — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
Chapter 13.04 Article IX (Water Conservation) sets year-round permanent water-waste rules: no runoff onto sidewalks/streets, no daytime irrigation between specified hours, and irrigation only on designated days during drought declarations.
Year-round prohibitions include allowing irrigation water to run off into the gutter, washing hardscape (driveways, patios) with potable water except in limited circumstances, and watering during or within 48 hours of measurable rainfall. During state-declared drought stages, the City Council can activate additional restrictions (2-day-per-week schedules, 8 a.m.-8 p.m. no-water windows). Customers receive courtesy warnings for first violations; repeat violators face administrative fines.
Administrative penalties under §13.04; flow restrictors may be installed for repeat or egregious violations.
