13.14.020 Purpose and intent.

The purpose of this chapter is to have a plan for water conservation resulting from a reduced supply of water such as may result from drought, water supply shortages, or limitations of water delivery conditions.

Nothing in this chapter will preclude the city council from passing an emergency resolution for the immediate curtailment of water use by its customers due to water supply shortages and delivery limitations caused by catastrophic events and conditions, either natural or unnatural.

In the event any provision of this chapter conflicts or overlaps with any mandatory state regulation related to water conservation, the most stringent shall apply.
