The drought is for real, y'all |
|
A picture's worth a thousand words, so we're showing you a picture ... of Lake Travis.
Lake Travis is the City of Cedar Park's sole water source.
We're closely monitoring lake levels, which continue to drop by the day. We are going to need lots of rain to help raise lake levels back to normal and get us out of this drought. It's one of the most severe droughts in our history. Please keep up the good work of conserving water. Thanks, y'all!

Now's the time to take advantage of LCRA rebates
Is your lawn golden and crispy? Yeah, this is all of our lawns. All kidding aside, it's more important than ever to take advantage of water-saving incentives from the LCRA. The LCRA manages our water supply, Lake Travis. As a City of Cedar Park water customer, you could be eligible for LCRA rebates of 50 percent of the total cost, up to $600 per residential property, for irrigation evaluations, retrofitting or replacing irrigation system equipment and more.
