Water Use
Cherry Creek Village Water District Watering Restrictions
Cherry Creek Village Water District receives its water supply from Denver Water. Accordingly, District customers are encouraged to review and follow Denver Water’s current outdoor watering rules and drought restrictions.
Denver Water has declared a Stage 1 drought, which includes mandatory outdoor watering restrictions. Under the current restrictions, outdoor watering is limited to two assigned days per week, and watering may only occur before 10:00 a.m. or after 6:00 p.m.
Customers are also asked to reduce overall water use by at least 20% and continue following Denver Water’s standard watering rules, including avoiding watering during rain or high winds, keeping water off streets and sidewalks, and repairing leaking or broken sprinkler systems in a timely manner.
The District appreciates residents’ cooperation in helping conserve water during the current drought conditions.

Denver’s summer watering rules have never sounded like this.

Efficiency is the New Conservation
Denver Water Board of Commissioners approved an updated Water Efficiency Plan in January 2018. The new plan is refocusing from a broad message of “Use Only What You Need” to a more focused and specific message:
- Pay attention to the weather and your landscape, and only water when necessary.
- Use a day of rain to skip watering.
- Only water the areas of your yard that are dry. For example, if shady areas look fine, only water the dry areas that get the most sun exposure.

Customers with new plants, including seed, sod, annuals, shrubs or trees, may apply to the District for permission to water as necessary for up to 21 days. Call 303-381-4960. After 21 days, regular watering rules apply.
Denver Water website will continue to provide up to the date information on these issues.
Adjust watering times at least once per month.
