    Water Conservation<\/h1>\n

    Water is essential to our everyday lives and our supplies are limited. Springville City is asking its residents to conserve water this summer.<\/p>\n

    If every resident cut their water use inside and outside of the home, billions of gallons of water could be saved. Below are some ways that you can help to conserve water this season:<\/p>\n

    \u2022 Avoid watering lawns between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.<\/p>\n
