Watering Restrictions: A Controller Playbook That Keeps Lawns Legal

Municipal rules change with drought stage. Screenshot the current ordinance into the job file. Program Hydrawise or the local Hunter panel to comply, including start-time windows.

Prioritize trees and high-value shrubs over parkway turf when cuts are deep. Customers accept triage when you explain it before the turf fades.

Rain sensors and Weather Intelligence help, but they do not override a legal watering day — people still need the schedule aligned.
