The Sartell City Council voted at its Sept. 13 meeting to lift the full water ban, effective immediately. However, the odd/even watering schedule is always in effect and property owners will be cited for non-compliance.
Property owners can begin to run irrigation systems, power wash and wash cars but should follow the odd/even watering schedule. If one’s address is 132 Test St., for example, one should water only on even numbered days, such as Sept. 24. If the house number is 133 Test St., watering should be done on odd days, such as Sept. 25.
Sartell is still listed as being in a “severe drought” by the Department of Natural Resources. Thus, residents should water only when necessary.
