Voluntary Water Conservation Requested

 in Town Manager

The Town of Hardwick is experiencing ongoing drought conditions, and while our water system remains stable at this time, we are asking all residents and businesses to do their part in conserving water. Voluntary conservation now will help protect our supply and reduce the need for mandatory restrictions later.

Please help by:
• Limiting outdoor watering, including lawns and gardens.
• Avoiding non-essential water use such as washing vehicles, filling swimming pools, or hosing down sidewalks/driveways.
• Taking shorter showers and running only full loads in dishwashers and washing machines.
• Fixing leaks promptly in faucets, toilets, and hoses.

Every effort makes a difference. Together, we can ensure that our community’s water needs are met throughout this dry period.

Thank you for doing your part to conserve water.

For updates, please visit the town website or call the Town Office at (802) 472-6120.
