Reminder: Water Ban

Hello, this is the Franklin Department of Public Works calling to remind you that the Town's Water Conservation Plan has been in effect since May 27th. Outside lawn watering is restricted to one day per week on your trash day. Lawn watering is not permitted from 9:00 AM thru 5:00 PM. No lawn watering is permitted on other days of the week. These summer water conservation measures are needed to limited the daily demand on the water system in order to ensure adequate water is available to meet the public health and safety needs of the Town. Please remember, the University of Massachusetts Cooperative Extension Center recommends that lawns only need one inch of water, either from rainfall or irrigation, each week. Non- compliance with these regulations could adversely affect public health and safety. Violators are subject to fines up to $200.00 Additional information can be found on the Town of Franklin website. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.
