The city of Rome has decided to ease outdoor watering restrictions. City officials announced yesterday that residents can now water their lawns and gardens, wash their cars and put water in their pools three days a week between midnight and 10 a.m.
Rome officials received approval from the state Enviromental Protection Division for the loosening of restrictions. Most of north Georgia has been gripped by extreme drought conditions after years of below-average rainfall and parched conditions. The state has slowly begun to lift some bans on outdoor watering.
