Annual Water Use Table - Irrigation Plan#
Instructions
- Irrigated areas for each zone should be a "best estimate," splitting areas between zones as necessary. For drip irrigation, the irrigated area should estimate the area actually wetted by the emitters.
- Determine the average annual water use (in gallons per square foot) by referring to the hydrozones listed on the Water Use Table on the landscape plan.
- Determine the annual total water use (in gallons) by multiplying the irrigated area (in square feet) by the average gallons per square foot for that zone.
- Divide the total water use by the irrigated area to determine overall gallons per square foot (not to exceed 15 gal./s.f.).

When it rains, pollutants go down storm drains, contaminating our water bodies. Small leaks and drips add up. Don’t drip and drive.
Wearing an extra layer of clothing during the winter and lowering the thermostat a few degrees can help save money and energy.
We clean and maintain the City's wastewater system year-round to prevent sewer backups. You can help by only flushing the three Ps.
