The City of Ellensburg launched two new initiatives on August 27: a stormwater community survey and a summer water conservation campaign. The stormwater survey, available online, seeks public input on local water quality and the city's stormwater program. The water conservation campaign encourages residents to 'let their lawn go blonde' by reducing outdoor watering this summer. Additional night work on the Canyon Road overlay project begins August 27 at 8 p.m. An alley between 3rd and 4th Avenues, parallel to Pearl and Pine streets, will close on September 1.
