The Greater Pine Island Water Association Board of Directors has chosen to follow the currently mandated Lee County watering restrictions effective April 18, 2008:

   

For properties less than 5 acres

12:00 a.m. to 10 a.m. and/or   4 p.m. to 11:59 p.m

(in other words - no watering between 10 am & 4pm)

 

Odd street addresses - Wednesday & Saturdays

Even street addresses - Thursdays & Sundays

 

 

Hand-watering with one hose fitted with an automatic shut-off nozzle is allowed for 10 minutes per day

for  landscape stress relief and to prevent plant die-off.

 

No restrictions apply to other outside water uses, such as for car and boat washing, pressure cleaning of

paved surfaces, decorative fountains and water-based recreation (e.g. swimming pools, water slides).

 

 

For further information please contact the local South Florida Management District
