The Southwest Florida Water Management District extended the Modified Phase III “Extreme” Water Shortage Order for Pinellas County. This extension, announced today, means residents must continue limiting outdoor watering to one day per week until March 31, 2027.
Severe drought conditions prompted the district's decision to prolong the restrictions. The ongoing dry spell necessitates continued conservation efforts across the county to maintain water supplies.
Pinellas County residents must adhere to the one-day-per-week watering schedule. This measure aims to reduce overall water consumption and mitigate the impact of the prolonged drought.
Specific watering schedules for individual municipalities, such as Belleair, are available through local resources. Residents should consult their local government websites or utility providers for precise details on their designated watering day.
