City calls for water conservation

The City of Marion is calling on residents to conserve water based on the weather forecast. Although raw water resources are normal at this point, city officials say this is a proactive measure. They want people at even numbered addresses to use water for non-essential activities such as washing vehicles, filling swimming pools, water plants or lawns to do that on even numbered days starting this week. People at odd numbered addresses can do the same on odd numbered days.
