Irrigation Season is Fast Approaching

As seasons change and the weather gets warmer, it brings us closer to irrigation season and the watering of our lawns and gardens. The Town of Silt is preparing to turn on the irrigation systems on May 1st 2024. Please be sure that your hose bibs are closed and that you have all of your irrigation repairs completed by April 15th so that when the water runs, you hopefully have no surprises. Remember that this is non-potable water and DO NOT DRINK. Please be mindful of the irrigation regulations and happy Spring!
