💧 STAGE 1 WATER CONSERVATION REMINDER

Water pumpage continues to rise as high temperatures persist across our area. The City of Katy is urging residents, businesses, and HOAs to reduce water use and help prevent the need to enter Stage 2 Mandatory Water Restrictions.

Please do your part:

• Limit outdoor watering and irrigation
• Water only before 8 a.m. or after 8 p.m.
• Check irrigation systems, faucets, hoses, and toilets for leaks
• Contact your HOA if you notice irrigation leaks in common areas or elsewhere in your neighborhood
• Postpone pressure washing and washing vehicles at home
• Postpone draining and refilling swimming pools
• Run dishwashers and washing machines only with full loads
Reducing outdoor irrigation can make the greatest immediate impact. Every effort matters as we work together to lower demand on Katy’s water system.

💧 Not sure if you're on the City of Katy water system? Check your address at www.cityofkaty.com/maps.

For more information, contact the City of Katy Public Works Department during business hours (7 a.m.–4 p.m.) at 281-391-4820 or email [email protected].

Please conserve today so we can stay out of Stage 2.

💧 STAGE 1 WATER CONSERVATION IS IN EFFECT IN KATY

The City of Katy has activated Stage 1 of our Water Conservation Plan due to a continued rise in water pumpage and ongoing high heat in our area. This means we are asking residents to voluntarily reduce water use:

• Irrigate landscaping only between 12–8 AM and 8 PM–midnight.
• Hold off on draining and refilling swimming pools.
• Report leaks and dripping sprinkler heads promptly.
• Skip non-essential water use like pressure washing and car washing.

There’s no mandatory irrigation schedule yet—but conserving now helps us avoid moving to stricter, mandatory stages later.

Thank you for doing your part!

🗑️ Garbage Rate Update – Effective September 1, 2026

As the City of Katy continues its garbage services with Texas Pride Disposal, residential garbage rates will increase by $0.81/month, effective September 1, 2026.

This annual Consumer Price Index adjustment helps cover rising fuel and labor costs. Despite the increase, the City is proud to continue offering garbage rates that remain lower than the rates residents paid at the end of 2020 under our former provider.

Thank you, Pride Disposal, for helping keep Katy clean! Questions? Email [email protected] for assistance.

🗑️ Actualización de la tarifa de recolección de basura – Vigente a partir del 1 de Septiembre de 2026

Como parte de la continuidad de los servicios de recolección de basura de la Ciudad de Katy con Texas Pride Disposal, las tarifas residenciales aumentarán $0.81 al mes a partir del 1 de septiembre de 2026.

Este ajuste anual basado en el Índice de Precios al Consumidor ayuda a cubrir el aumento de los costos de combustible y mano de obra. A pesar del aumento, la Ciudad se enorgullece de seguir ofreciendo tarifas de recolección de basura inferiores a las que pagaban los residentes a finales de 2020 con nuestro proveedor anterior.

¡Gracias, Pride Disposal, por ayudar a mantener limpia la ciudad de Katy!

💧 IT’S HOT, DRY—AND THERE’S NO RAIN IN SIGHT!

That means the City of Katy’s water pumpage is on the rise. What can you do to help conserve water and keep our community out of mandatory water restrictions?

🌱 Irrigation Tips
• Limit outdoor watering and skip a watering day when possible.
• Water during the early morning or evening to reduce evaporation.
• Check sprinkler heads and irrigation systems for leaks, breaks and overspray.
• Make sure you’re watering your lawn—not the sidewalk or street.
• Adjust irrigation schedules after rainfall.

🏠 Household Water-Saving Tips
• Run dishwashers and washing machines only with full loads.
• Turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth or shaving.
• Take shorter showers.
• Check faucets, toilets and hoses for leaks. Even a small leak can waste a surprising amount of water!

🚗 Pressure Washing, Vehicles & Pools
• Delay nonessential pressure-washing projects until conditions improve.
• Postpone draining and refilling swimming pools whenever possible.
• Use a pool cover to reduce evaporation.
• Skip washing your vehicle at home—or visit a local car wash that recycles or reclaims its water. It’s less work for you, conserves water and supports a local business!
Small changes can make a big difference. By conserving water now, we can reduce demand on our water system and help prevent the need for mandatory restrictions.

🎒📚Back to School, Back to Clean Water!💧🌎

As students head back to school, it’s also a great time for a quick stormwater lesson!

Storm drains help carry rainwater away from our streets, but they also flow directly to our local creeks and waterways. Trash, grass clippings, oil, chemicals, and other pollutants left on the ground can be washed into storm drains when it rains.

We can all do our part to keep our community and waterways clean. Pick up litter, clean up after pets, prevent automotive leaks, and never dump anything into a storm drain.

💧Remember: Only rain should go down the drain!

Have a safe and successful school year!🎒✏️
