FRANCIS, Utah — The Francis City government has announced that residents may resume outdoor watering, as of Thursday, July 20.

The city government had asked residents to cease all outdoor watering late last week, due to “critically low” water tank levels.

“Outdoor watering is allowed. Thank you for your patience as we worked through this frustrating issue,” said a statement from the Francis City government. “The new pump is operational at Woodland Hills and the temporary pump for the new Francis is also online and operational since the test results for bacteria came back negative.”
