REMINDER
Sago Point Town Hall Meeting, Tuesday, May 19 at 6:00 pm
A town hall meeting with ITS talking about irrigation system updates will be conducted on May 19th at 6 PM at the Bayou Club, Fireplace Room.
Currently Sago Point has the original hard-wire system to regulate and control our irrigation system. Many of you have had problems with this antiquated system over the years and the repair costs have been significant and are increasing.
On May 19th the representative from ITS will present a proposal to upgrade our current hard-wire system using WiFi technology.
We look forward to having all of our neighbors listen to this presentation, ask questions, and hear the pros and cons for converting to this new system. The new system would likely require some amount of assessment be levied on residents of our community.
Topic: Sago Point
Time: May 19, 2026 06:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

NEWS
Please read the important update regarding the water shortage from Pinellas County.
Severe drought conditions and declining water supplies have led the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) to issue a Modified Phase III “Extreme” Water Shortage Order. This elevated restriction level emphasizes the urgent need for customers throughout Pinellas County and surrounding areas to take immediate action to conserve water. Pinellas County Utilities customers must adhere to the following watering schedule and restrictions. Residents who do not receive their water from Pinellas County Utilities should verify their watering days and restrictions with their water supplier.
To protect the remaining water supply, Pinellas County Utilities is required to issue a $193 citation for any violation of these watering restrictions beginning April 17, 2026. This fine will double with each additional violation. Learn how to better conserve water at Pinellas.gov/water-saving-tips-tools.
Rules for New Plantings
A 60-day establishment period exemption applies to new plant material, including turf grass, shrubs, and trees.
Days 1–30: You may water on any day of the week.
Days 31–60: You may water only three days per week:
Even Addresses: Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday.
Odd Addresses: Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
Installation Day: New plants can be watered one time at any hour on the day they are installed.
Irrigation Method: Entire irrigation zones may only be used if the zone contains at least 50% new plant material. Otherwise, you must use targeted methods like a hose with a shutoff nozzle.
Hand-Watering Restrictions
While hand-watering is generally more flexible than automated systems, specific time limits apply under Phase III:
Non-Lawn Plants: Flower beds, shrubs, and other non-turf plants may be hand-watered on any day, but only before 8 a.m. or after 6 p.m.
Lawns: Hand-watering of lawns (turf) is strictly limited to your designated one-day-per-week schedule and approved hours.
