Earlier this month, the Metropolitan Water District announced watering restrictions due to worsening drought conditions that have severely limited water supplies from Northern California; only 5% of the usual water supply is available this year.
As different areas and cities get their water supplies from different water companies, restrictions and requirements may vary. The City of San Gabriel is diligently working with the city's five local water companies to understand what requirements will be. Once there is concrete information, we will be sharing more with our residents.
In the meantime, please continue to be water wise and conserve water. It remains the most responsible way to reduce the demand for water and conserve the water supply.

In 1965, the Laguna de San Gabriel playground was built on the last undeveloped land of Vincent Lugo Park. Benjamin Dominguez, an artist known for his imaginative concrete structures, was the creator of the playground.
The City of San Gabriel is celebrating La Laguna’s Anniversary with a day of play on Saturday, May 21. The event will take place at Vincent Lugo Park from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The Community Services Department and Friends of La Laguna have been working hard to plan a fun filled day for the entire family, including games, crafts, and entertainment.
