Watering Rules Stay In Effect
Friday, May 1, 2026 · Brighton, CO
Brighton's Stage 1 drought restrictions remain in effect as May begins. The city has moved to two-day-per-week outdoor irrigation in response to low snowpack and regional water conditions. Even-numbered addresses may water only on Tuesdays and Fridays, while odd-numbered addresses may water only on Wednesdays and Saturdays. This is an important month to double check sprinklers, plan yard care carefully, and help the community conserve water heading into the warmer season.
