Water Conservation Notice
August 5, 2026
In accordance with Chapter 16, Article 2, Section 207 of the Blanchard City Code, the City of Blanchard is issuing a water conservation notice due to extreme temperatures and increased water demand.
Water levels in the City’s two main water towers have fallen below 55% operating capacity, affecting water volume and pressure throughout the system. As a result, the City of Blanchard is implementing a Tier 2 Water Conservation Response.
Under Tier 2, lawn watering is limited to a maximum of two days per week on the following schedule:
Single-family resident addresses ending in an odd number - Wednesdays & Saturdays
Single-family resident addresses ending in an even number - Sundays & Thursdays
Duplexes, triplexes, HOA properties, commercial, industrial, govt. - Tuesdays & Fridays
In addition to the restriction, the City asks residents and businesses to avoid lawn watering and other nonessential water use between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. to reduce evaporation and make water usage more effective.
This restriction will take effect on Thursday, August 6th, and will remain in place until water tower levels and system water pressures return to normal. The City will continue to monitor the system and provide updates as conditions change.
Water is essential to the health and safety of our community. Thank you for doing your part to conserve water and support your community.
