The City of Lakeville will expand the Urban Water Conservation Program in 2020. This program, which began in 2018 through a partnership with the Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powers Organization (VRWJPO), offers local Homeowners - or Townhome - Associations cost-share to improve irrigation system watering efficiency after participating in an irrigation audit.

In 2020, the City and VRWJPO will fund up to eight irrigation audits and offer cost-share (requiring a 50% match) to participant Associations for improvements. Should your Association be interested in participating, submit the Urban Water Conservation Program Application to Kelly Perrine at kperrine@lakevillemn.gov by April 1. Applications will be ranked and chosen Associations will be required to pay $50 to go towards the cost of the audit.

If you have questions about the program, contact Kelly Perrine, Environmental Resources Technician, at kperrine@lakevillemn.gov or 952-985-4524.
