Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection<br />

ordinances.<br />

The City encourages potable water conservation through a conservation rate structure and through enforcement of water<br />

restrictions by the Plant City Police Department. The City's <strong>Water</strong> Conservation ordinance requires all potable water users<br />

consuming 25,000 GPD or more to develop and submit a water conservation plan. Conservation of reclaimed water is encouraged<br />

through metering all services and the use of a conservation rate structure. The City's <strong>Water</strong> Conservation program includes<br />

educational efforts to encourage the efficient use of both potable and reclaimed water. <strong>Water</strong> conservation education activities<br />

include a combination of presentations to community organizations and one-on-one meetings with individual residential and<br />

commercial customers exhibiting unusually high water use. The City has also recently implemneted a <strong>Water</strong> Budget for irrigation of<br />

City owned and managed properties. Examples of some of the City's reclaimed water program brocures are provided in the<br />

attached documents. New developments are required to install reclaimed water infrastructure as a condition of their development<br />

approvals, where the City expects that reclaimed water supply will be reasonably available.<br />
