The City of Statesville is currently experiencing a Stage D1 Moderate Drought condition, as declared by the North Carolina Drought Management Advisory Council (NCDMAC). This announcement follows the recent update to the North Carolina Drought Advisory, based on data from the U.S. Drought Monitor of North Carolina, issued on March 27, 2025.

In accordance with City Code and the Water Shortage Response Plan (WSRP), the City of Statesville is implementing a voluntary lawn and landscape irrigation schedule to help manage water use during this period. We encourage residents to adhere to the following schedule:

Voluntary Lawn and Landscape Irrigation Schedule:

  • Odd-numbered street addresses:
    • Tuesday 8 p.m. to Wednesday 8 a.m.
    • Saturday 8 p.m. to Sunday 8 a.m.
  • Even-numbered street addresses and unnumbered addresses:
    • Thursday 8 p.m. to Friday 8 a.m.
    • Sunday 8 p.m. to Monday 8 a.m.

Additionally, residents are encouraged to voluntarily reduce residential vehicle washing.

The City will continue to monitor drought conditions and take further measures as deemed necessary by the NCDMAC. If additional actions are required to achieve water use goals, the director may publish further voluntary conservation measures or impose mandatory water conservation measures at city facilities.

The City of Statesville’s Water Shortage Response Plan can be found on the city website at https://www.statesvillenc.net/water-resources.

For questions about voluntary water use restrictions, please contact Andy Smith at 704-878-3439.
