Cupertino Water Conservation Restriction Measures 2021
RESTRICTION MEASURE PURPOSE
Collective impacts of drought, climate change, increased population demands, and potential natural disasters require the conservation and efficient use of water. The purpose of these measures are to conserve and efficiently use water at all City owned facilities while maintaining safe conditions for employees and the public.
Improvement of Cit
y owned facilities to reduce water use, other than those typical for normal operation or maintenance, are not covered in these measures.
RESTRICTIO
N M
EASURES
At all times t
he use of water at City facilities is to be as efficient as practically possible. During periods of drought, water conservation procedures will be followed at all City facilities. Wasting of water is to be avoided at all times of the year.
Annually,
every City facility* is to have water use quantified in volume and dollars as follows:
Amount of water use for buildings
Amount of water use for landscape shrubs and/or trees
Amount of water use for turf utilized by recreation programmed by the City or Cupertino Unified School District
Amount of water use for turf utilized by permitted City events Amount of water use for remaining turf
Amount of water used in ponds and/or fountains
*Metering of water at City facilities may or may not be separate for each identified water use.
When one me
ter services several uses, amounts of individual water use is to be interpolated.
Annually, w
ater used for City operation shall be analyzed cumulatively and separately for each facility. Comparisons will be made to prior years.

ities included are:
1. Blackberry Golf Course
2. Ca

PROCEDURES
Drought conservation measures may be required individually or collectively by the State, Santa
Clara Valley Water District (SCVWD), San Jose Water Company (SJWC) or California Water Service Company (CWSC). Water conservation measures recommended or mandated by SCVWD shall
be followed for all City operations. If State requirements, specific to the Cupertino area, are more onerous than SCVWD measures, then State requirements shall be followed for all C
ity operations. Water conservation rules, as implemented by either SJWC or CWSC a
nd in support of either State and/or SCVWD requirements, shall be followed. Due to the limited area of the City serviced by CWSC, the rules implemented by SJWC shall be applied City-wide unless otherwise prohibited.
