St. John's WMD Water Less Campaign
With irrigation systems accounting for about half of a home’s total water use, we see homeowners (and business owners) as natural allies in water conservation. Throughout the next year, the Water Less conservation focus will shift each season to reflect the unique water needs of Florida lawns and landscaping. This fall launches “Fall Back” to encourage once-a-week watering as we enter cooler weather. When lawns go dormant this winter and need less water, the campaign focus becomes “Skip a Week,” to encourage skipping every other week of irrigation. Did you set it and forget it? In spring, the campaign emphasizes taking control of your irrigation system to make it work for you while also saving water. The summer Water Less campaign theme is “Watch the weather, wait to water” — a reminder in Florida’s typically rainy summer that there’s a good chance Mother Nature will water for you.

Sidewalk Maintenance Program
The City of Mascotte initiated an annual sidewalk asset maintenance program in August 2022 to maintain safe, ADA-compliant sidewalks for residents and visitors. The contractor has been instructed to remove all repairable changes in level measuring ¼” to 2” in height using a 1:12 slope to meet ADA requirements. The program allows the City to minimize liability and improve the safety and aesthetics of its sidewalks, while saving the taxpayer residents money when compared to alternative methods. Since inception, the City’s contractor has been able to remove 1,108 hazards on 17.49 miles of sidewalk in seven neighborhoods and additional City streets, while saving the City almost $125,000 when compared to other methods of maintenance.
This method allows the City to keep the sidewalks in service and minimize inconvenience to pedestrians. No heavy equipment or traffic control is required for the process and all areas are left debris and hazard free.
Each year City Council provides staff with funds to maintain sidewalks in the City and it is our desire to provide the citizens with the best product at the best cost.
