Due to ongoing drought conditions, most of Marion County, including the City of Ocala, is now under a Phase III Extreme Water Shortage Advisory. Irrigation is restricted to one day per week: odd-numbered addresses water on Saturdays; even-numbered addresses water on Sundays; non-residential properties water on Tuesdays. Irrigation is prohibited between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. and is limited to no more than ¾ inch per zone per scheduled day. Customers are urged to review the full irrigation schedule at www.ocalafl.gov/irrigation.
