Few Citations Issued for Violating Water Restrictions - KZTV

CORPUS CHRISTI - It's been ten days since the city went into stage two water restrictions. According to water officials, most citizens are abiding by the new rules.

The city went into stage two on December 17th after the levels at Lake Corpus Christi fell under 40-percent.

Water Superintendent Mike Olivarez says so far the city has only issued between 10 and 12 warnings to residents.

Olivarez says most of those who received the warning had sprinkler systems on between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.

The rest of the residents were caught watering between those hours. If those residents are caught they will be fined up to $500.
