"Garland Water Utilities appreciates its customers' efforts in conserving water. Through their diligence, we have successfully met our reduction goals," Managing Director, John Baker said in a press release. "We apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause, but it is necessary to assure system reliability during high demands."
