The city rescinded its Stage 5 drought conditions Tuesday, spokesman Paul Romer said.
The restrictions were placed Saturday after leaks caused by the winter storm and high demand dropped water levels in the cityâs towers, according to city officials.
âThe Stage 5 emergency designation was initiated on Saturday, Feb. 20, to allow the cityâs water towers to replenish supply following a week of extreme winter conditions,â Romer said. âThe conservation effort helped to preserve essential domestic services, including firefighting.â
Belton worked with large water consumers to reduce their consumption levels and helped residents find leaks and turn off their service so their pipes could be repaired.
