It's a question many may be asking.
In unincorporated Hillsborough County there are two sets of water use restrictions, depending on the property location. A new address look up tool can help individuals find the correct days and times for a specific address.
Most properties south of the Alafia River are under a temporary one-day-a-week schedule and special morning irrigation hours until Dec. 31, 2022:
-
Mondays for addresses ending in 0 or 1; Tuesdays for those ending in 2 or 3; Wednesdays for those ending in 4 or 5; Thursdays for those ending in 6 or 7; Fridays for those ending in 8 or 9; and Saturdays for properties with no or a mixed address.
-
Except for hand-watering and low-volume irrigation, landscape watering must take place either between 8:30 a.m. and noon, or from 6 p.m. to midnight on the allowable day.
These temporary restrictions apply to all within the South County variance area using potable (drinking) water supplied by Hillsborough County Public Utilities for irrigation. Other water sources, including private wells, and ponds or lakes that are used as alternate irrigation supplies continue to follow year-round water restrictions.
Most properties north of the Alafia River follow the year-round, twice-a-week schedule:
-
Mondays and Thursdays for addresses ending in 0, 1, 2, or 3; Tuesdays and Fridays for those ending in 4, 5, or 6; and Wednesdays and Saturdays for addresses ending in 7, 8, or 9.
-
Except for hand-watering and low-volume irrigation, landscape watering must take place before 8 a.m. or afte
