Pinellas County Utilities customers are encouraged to follow these restrictions throughout the year to promote a healthy, drought-tolerant lawn with deep roots. These restrictions are mandatory during Florida’s traditional dry seasons from April through June and October through November.

Violations of these restrictions may result in a $193 fine. More information on reclaimed water available online or call (727) 464-4000.
