CITY OF YELM
RESOLUTION NUMBER 556
RESTRICTING THE USE OF W ATER FOR IRRIGATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 13.04.097 YELM
MUNICIPAL CODE AND ESTABLISHING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION
OF W ATER C ONSERVATION MEASURES IN 2015
W HEREAS, Section 13.04.097 YMC states that the City reserves the right for any
cause to make any order regulating forbidding or restricting the use of water for
irrigation or sprinkling or any other non-essential outside usage; and
W HEREAS, irrigation water through irrigation meters within the City of Yelm used
68.7 acre feet of water in 2009, enough water to provide potable water for 285 homes;
and
W HEREAS, irrigation water through irrigation meters accounted for 8.5% of all
water used in Yelm in 2009; and
W HEREAS, irrigation water usage significantly adds to the peak demand needs of
the City of Yelm water system, requiring costly infrastructure improvements including
source capacity, storage, and distribution lines; and
W HEREAS, the City conducted a water audit that shows almost twice as much
water is used to irrigate commercial landscaping and recreational open space as is
required to keep these areas healthy and productive; and
W HEREAS, the City utilized the Washington Irrigation Guide, published by the
National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) and data from the Environmental
Protection Agency to determine that typical landscaping plants comprised of trees and
shrubs require 11.53 inches of irrigation water per season in the Yelm area to remain
healthy and productive; and
W HEREAS, the City desires to promote water conservation by watering street
trees (trees in the public right of way) only as needed during the irrigation season with
reclaimed water and allowing grass in planter strips within the public right of way to go
dormant; and
W HEREAS, many private storm ponds within residential and commercial
developments have irrigation systems that were installed to establish storm pond
plantings but are not required for long term maintenance of the ponds; and
W HEREAS, residential irrigation is not metered separately through irrigation
meters but is a significant portion of total water usage in Yelm; and
The Community Development Director shall establish a water budget for every
irrigation meter customer that limits the annual amount of irrigation water allowed
for each irrigation meter. The water budget shall be based on:
The area of landscaping on the site, excluding storm ponds and planter
strips within the public street right of way.
2.
The total amount of water allocated for irrigation meter customers shall be no
greater than 1,500,000 cubic feet (34.44 AF).
3.
Written notice of the annual water budget shall be provided to each irrigation
meter customer.
4.
Irrigation meters will be read weekly during the irrigation season and notice of
weekly usage above that predicted by the Washington Irrigation Guide will be
provided to irrigation utility customers.
5.
When the water budget for the year has been used, the irrigation meter will be
locked.
6.
The City will irrigate with reclaimed water all planter strips in the public right of
way, as needed.
7.
