The short version is


quote:

Watering of lawns (including athletic fields), trees, shrubs, and vegetable and flower gardens is allowed every other day only, on an "odd-even" basis, with the exceptions set forth at A through D below. "Odd/even" watering means that watering may occur on odd numbered days on the side of the street with odd numbered addresses, and on even numbered days on the side of the street with even numbered addresses

If my house number is 17 and the house next door is 17A does that make both of us odd?

What if an even house waters his odd neighbor's house with his even watewr on an even day.

Can sprinklers be programmed only to water on evemn/odd days?

Odd you would say that - I prefer eccentric genius myself

As any baseball fans knows, the Elysian Fields are in Hoboken, and that is where the first baseball game was played. Elysian Park occupies the site (between the old Maxwell House coffee factory and my alma mater Stevens Tech). I watched Robert DeNiro and Billy Crystal film a movie there last month and of course that is where they filmed "On the Waterfront" in the early 1950's. At this time there is a dog run on Elysian Fields and that is how the field gets watered!

Even the other day, during a thunderstorm, my odd neighbor was watering her lawn, and the clock said 12. Was that a violation of the drought rules?
