🧻 Toilet paper vs. a non-flushable wipe... the results speak for themselves. 
 
While toilet paper is designed to break down in water, non-flushable wipes can stay intact long after they’re flushed. 
That can lead to clogged pipes, damaged equipment and costly repairs throughout the wastewater system. 
 
Help keep your plumbing and our wastewater system flowing smoothly by remembering the 3 Ps: 

✔️ Pee 
✔️ P**p
✔️ (Toilet) Paper 
 
Everything else belongs in the trash. 🗑️

Brown grass? Your lawn may be doing exactly what it should. 🌱

During a Texas summer, grass can naturally go dormant to conserve energy and moisture. That means brown doesn’t always mean dead, and it doesn’t always mean your lawn needs more water. 💧

Why it matters: Overwatering can waste water, encourage shallow roots and increase the risk of disease.

🌱 Learn how to spot dormancy, water more efficiently and keep your landscape healthy:
