Like the City of Thousand Oaks, the Conejo Recreation and Park District is committed <br />to water conservation. We will continue to monitor water usage and seek <br />opportunities to expand our existing water conservation practices. The District has <br />taken steps to ensure compliance with the 3 -day per week (Level 1) watering <br />limitations at our neighborhood parks and community centers. <br />As evidence of our commitment to water savings, the District's goal is to reduce our <br />water consumption 20% by the year 2020 (as compared to our 2007 benchmark). This <br />will be done through general conservation practices, as well as converting non-essential <br />portions of the parks (other than sports fields and high use public areas) to drought <br />tolerant landscaping, as opposed to compromising essential turf health. In light of the <br />District's continuous efforts to save water and avoid water costs over the years, we are <br />extremely concerned that cutting back further on irrigating sports field turf will <br />compromise turf health and viability, and is likely to lead to dead and weedy parks. <br />The District takes great pride in our parks and is committed to saving water and <br />keeping our parks functional and beautiful for the enjoyment of the general community. <br />For additional information, please contact the Parks and Planning Division at <br />(805) 495-5471 or email at , a <br />Revised 61112013 <br />
