Jackson council to take up irrigation-restriction ordinance April 20

Jackson Town Council’s April 20 regular meeting includes a first-reading item for Ordinance C, described in the agenda as an ordinance regarding water-efficiency (irrigation) restrictions. The item is slated to be presented by Public Works Director Johnny Ziem.

The publicly posted packet does not include the full draft ordinance language in a clearly labeled section, so the specific policy details — such as what drought or supply metrics would trigger restrictions, what outdoor watering practices would be limited (e.g., lawn irrigation schedules, new landscaping), and how violations would be enforced — are not spelled out in the agenda summary itself. Council action April 20 would be the first reading.

Residents who want to weigh in can attend in person or submit comment to electedofficials@jacksonwy.gov, which is listed on the meeting agenda. Full meeting materials are in the town’s Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet and meeting agenda.
