Watering Restrictions

St. Cloud and much of Central Minnesota is in a severe drought. St. Cloud currently allows for watering once a week on the same day your garbage is picked up. Mayor Dave Kleis says watering of new trees and yards are still allowed with city approval.

St. Cloud has no watering restrictions despite the recent lack of rain which has forced some cities in the St. Cloud area into watering restrictions. St. Cloud Mayor Dave Kleis joined me on WJON today. He says because St. Cloud gets their water from the Mississippi River they have enough water reserves.
