Drought Will Affect Landscape Conditions at All Schools

Coronado Unified Staff and Students Told to Limit Water Use

Governor Brown recently issued an executive order that includes a mandatory 25 percent water usage reduction. Harrold Wigg, Director of Maintenance, Operations and Transportation stated that the District has previously tried to conserve water by monitoring water use and implementing numerous measures to reduce water use and prevent waste like:

• The replacement of landscaping with drought tolerant plantings at ECDC, Village, and the District Office
• The installation of artificial turf at the High School and Village Elementary
• The replacement of irrigation timers with smart irrigation controllers at Middle School, ECDC, District Office and High School

While these were steps in the right direction, the District will need to cut even further during this difficult time. In order to comply with the intent and spirit of the Governor's order, it has been decided to cease the watering of the exterior (outside of gates) lawns at our sites and reduce the interior watering times.

All staff and students are being asked to think of more ways to conserve. Click here for the link to the state's water agency for all to study and share.
