How to respond

Businesses affected by proposed Las Vegas Valley Water District service-rule changes have until 6 p.m. October 26, 2026, to submit comments. The district asks for specific evidence of economic burdens or restrictions on business operations.

Send responses to LVVWD-BIS@lvvwd.com or Jordan Bunker, Las Vegas Valley Water District, 1001 S. Valley View Boulevard, M/S #760, Las Vegas, NV 89153.

What is proposed

The notice covers water-waste enforcement, property-owner responsibility for tenant balances or equipment damage, and changes to fees and metering. Its nonfunctional-turf provision concerns properties not zoned exclusively for single-family residences; it is not a blanket instruction to remove every residential lawn.

The tentative timetable has the board considering a business-impact statement November 3, a public hearing December 1, and implementation January 1, 2027, if approved. Consult the linked district notice for the full proposal and fee tables.
