Voluntary Water Conservation as of July 9, 2010
The Town of Exeter is requesting a Voluntary Water Conservation. Due to high temperatures water demand has increased dramatically. Should the water system experience a large main break or firefighting event there could a dangerously low volume of water remaining in the town's three water tanks. Water conservation efforts include reduced lawn sprinkling, cessation of "topping off" of swimming pools, less washing of vehicles, power washing of buildings and decks, refilling of industrial cooling towers and so on. The Water Department requests that these, and other optional water consuming actions be termporarily suspended during this current domestic high water demand period so that our water tank volumes stay sufficiently for firefighting. For more information call Michael Jeffers, Water & Sewer Managing Engineer at 773-6165.
Farmer's Market begins on Thursday May 6, 2010 and will be held every Thursday thru October 28, 2010. Market is open from 2:15PM to 6:00PM.
