The one-day-per-week irrigation restriction will start on June 1.
As the drought worsens and as their water supply dwindles, residents in some of the richest parts of Los Angeles County will only be able to water their lawns once a week or face fines.
Beginning on June 1, residents like Schneider will be limited to a one-day-per-week irrigation restriction as the Las Virgenes Municipal Water District Board attempts to address water supply challenges because of the ongoing drought. This new limitation will affect residents in Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Hidden Hills, Westlake Village and unincorporated parts of western L.A. County.
According to Pedersen, LVMWD lacks a local water supply for drinking, forcing the district to import from other areas. The drought has caused the supply to drastically drop making it impossible to meet everyone's normal needs. The general manager said that the penalty for violating the restriction will begin with a warning and then escalate to various fines.
