The severe drought that our state has experienced over the years has left no
one untouched in any Southern California community - when the Governor’s
Executive Orders prohibited the irrigation of ornamental turf in street medians, the
City of Camarillo complied.
But the City did not stop there, we decided this was a great opportunity to do our part
to save water at City Hall by installing water efficient landscaping and irrigation.
Residents are encouraged to visit City Hall and use this brochure for ideas to implement water efficient landscaping.
