There are a number of things to do in the garden during fall season and there are many native plants that can be planted at this time. Ceanothus, toyon, and other native shrubs with their deep, dense roots make excellent choices for erosion control. Plant bulbs that thrive in this climate such as anemones, daffodils, ranunculus, and South African babiana.
The Palmdale Water District is proposing to establish a “Water Supply Fee” that will provide funding for the acquisition of new water supplies to support new development. The Board of Directors will be considering this proposed fee at the September 25, 2013 regular Board meeting. New development will pay the proposed Water Supply Fee to provide the water for their projects. Existing customers will not be charged.

On Friday June 28, 2013, Governor Edmund G. Brown urged Californians to make July “Water Smart Month.”
We are all invited by Governor Edmund G. Brown to make July “Water Smart Month.” As the Governor announced, “I invite all Californians to practice more sustainable water consumption, whether it be watering the lawn less frequently, constructing a drip irrigation system for the garden or upgrading existing systems with smart irrigation controllers.”
The District’s “Before the First Drop” campaign is divided into three phases; the first survey, the education phase, and the last survey. The first survey ended April 30th. To be entered into the drawing for a new landscape renovation, many PWD customers have filled out the first survey. In July, there will be another survey.
