Water Utility Asks for Wise Use of Outdoor Water
The combination of sustained dry weather and a number of wells being out of service is putting pressure on the supply conditions of the Madison Water Utility. The Utility is asking customers to voluntarily limit outdoor water use, and is highlighting the following conservation tips:
- Established lawns need only one inch of water per week. Applying the water all at once, rather than frequent light waterings, promotes deeper roots and a healthier, more resilient lawn.
- Avoid watering during the mid-day heat. This will reduce losses due to evaporation.
- Raise your lawnmower height to promote deeper rooting. Taller grass also shades the soil surface thereby reducing evaporation.
- Use a sprinkling can or hand-held hose to specifically target smaller areas where a sprinkler is wasteful.
- Consider a timed sprinkler, which automatically shuts off after a desired rate of application.
- Use a rain barrel. Capturing water from downspouts conserves the municipal supply while providing the best water for lawn and garden.
Customers can also see exactly how much water they are using every day or even every hour with the utility's online conservation tool.
Additional water conservation tips for around the home and outdoors can be found on the Madison Water Utility website.
To ease the supply conditions, the Utility has also suspended routine hydrant flushing effective June 10. Utility managers will re-assess the situation after the current hot, dry spell subsides or the wells currently out of service for maintenance begin pumping again.

City to Present, Gather Input About Alternative Crisis Response Team
Public Information Session Scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday, June 22.
In its ongoing efforts to re-imagine public safety, the City of Madison is planning a virtual public information session to seek public input on an innovative new pilot program called CARES.
The City's Community Alternative Response for Emergency Services (CARES) program will address mental health 911 calls for service through an innovative new mobile unit modeled after the CAHOOTS program of Eugene, Oregon and the STAR program of Denver, Colorado.
The CARES team will consist of a community paramedic and a crisis worker who will undertake continuous education for cultural competency and deescalation best practices, on top of their ongoing professional development in their respective areas.
On June 22 at 7 p.m., the City will host a virtual public information session about the forthcoming CARES program. This public information session will be an opportunity for residents to learn the details of the initiative before the program launches and give feedback for program development.
REGISTER TO PARTICIPATE. You will receive an email with the Zoom link to the meeting.
Questions and comments can be directed to Deputy Mayor Reuben Sanon, rsanon@cityofmadison.com.
Fireworks at Breese Stevens - Oh My!
As many read in a Wisconsin State Journal article, a fireworks show will be included in an event at Breese Stevens Field the evening of July 3. From what I understand and as not detailed in the article, the fireworks are not expected to be nearly as powerful and lengthy as those used at Shake the Lake or similar events (Shake the Lake, btw, has been canceled). The Breese Stevens fireworks are the type that are used in arenas and stadiums, so they do not go as high and are not nearly as loud. That said, there is no doubt that fireworks of any type can be disturbing to some pets and some humans, so I'll publish the window of time that additional noise is expected.
Prior to the pandemic, the Tenney Lapham Neighborhood Council endorsed the Breese Stevens fireworks concept, although a specific event and date was unknown at that time. I also agreed that the event could be safe given that the Fire Department worked with Big Top to establish the safety criteria and with Traffic Engineering to make sure that E. Washington Ave. and any other nearby streets would not be impacted (primarily by drivers not being attentive and instead looking at the fireworks display).
Madison Music ...!
Madison neighborhoods are welcoming more outdoor amplified music this summer! This is allowing artists and musicians to more rapidly recover from the devastating economic down turn. This temporary permit was added to the Streatery Program and authorized by the Common Council on May 18th. All restaurants, bars and concerts halls are allowed to provide outdoor music all Thursdays from 3pm-8pm and Fridays/Saturdays from 3pm-9pm. This permit will only last until April 14, 2022. We appreciate your patience and understanding as artists have more opportunities to work again and music fans can celebrate, support economic recovery efforts, and strengthen our music ecosystem.
Also, Make Music Madison returns in person on Monday, June 21! Patios, sidewalks, front porches, and parks all over the city will fill with song for anyone to enjoy! Schedule and Interactive Map.
