The city of Davis is hosting free water conservation workshops for all water customers.
A workshop for residential customers, “How to Reduce Your Water Use Without Impacting Your Lifestyle,” will run from 3 to 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 21, at the Hallmark Inn, 110 F St. in downtown Davis.
Another workshop for businesses owners and apartment property managers will run from 3 to 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 28, at Sudwerk, 2001 Second St.
No registration or RSVP is required for either workshop.
“These workshops will help customers tailor their own conservation efforts based on their individual circumstances,” says Jacques De Bra, city utilities manager.
At the workshops, Public Works Department staff will discuss indoor water use, water-saving tools and appliances, rebate programs available, water leak loss and detection, and conservation assistance options.
The workshop also will highlight the biggest drain on water supplies — irrigation. Workshop attendees will learn about various options to conserve water outdoors through plant selection, planting techniques and irrigation schedules.
The commercial workshop will focus on conservation measures specifically for businesses.
