With the summer time here and the heat increasing daily let's remember to conserve our water usage.
Did you know that 50% of water used outdoors is wasted from inefficient watering methods.
The City of Arlington has teamed up with an irrigation company and is offering 100 free irrigation system checkups to Arlington homeowners.
