san antonio: San Antonio Water Rates Increase in 2009 - 01/01/09 11:44 PM
The San Antonio City Council recently approved a 3.9% rate adjustment (increase) in our water & sewer usage will go into effect in January, 2009.
The funds will go directly into our community to repair and replace our aging water and waste water infrastructure and to provide funding to develop critical water supply projects. The estimated increase would be approximately $1.63 per month - based on the average SAWS residential usage of 7,788 gallon of water and 6,178 gallons of wastewater usage per month.
Complete rate tables and a residential rate calculator are available on the San Antonio Water System website.

san antonio: Want to save money on your water bill? Here’s how. . . - 01/01/09 11:20 PM
San Antonio is suffering an extreme drought. Since September, 2007, we've had only 16.4" of rain in the San Antonio area. That just isn't enough rain to recharge the Edwards Aquifer. Here's one way to help postpone water usage restrictions.
You can get a FREE home water conservation audit. It only takes a few minutes but it could save you some money. Here's how it works:
A trained conservation water auditor checks all your water connections - toilets, faucets, spigots - for leaks. The auditor can also check your irrigation system (if you have one) to determine how it's performing and … (15 comments)

san antonio: San Antonio, Texas – Voluntary Drought Restrictions - 01/01/09 10:35 PM
Winter here in San Antonio usually brings rain. This is when the Edwards Aquifer is recharged by all of the seasonal rain. No t this year - we're in the midst of an extreme drought - the worse one since the 1950's. Our Aquifer level is falling instead of rising or at least holding steady.
Did you know that we use 2,000 gallons of water every time we use our irrigation or sprinkler system? San Antonio Water System (SAWS) is asking that we try to reduce the amount of water we're using both inside and outside. With a combination … (8 comments)

san antonio: RAINMAKERS NEEDED!!! - 01/01/09 08:56 PM
How about a Rainmaker's Convention? Any help would be appreciated. San Antonio completed 2008 with the driest 16 months September, 2007 through December, 2008, in recorded history. We had less than 1" of rain in the past 4 months and climate scientists are saying the dry conditions could last until the fall. The San Antonio Water System (SAWS) is considering implementing drought restrictions when the Edwards Aquifer falls to 660 feet above sea level. The restrictions currently kick in at 650 feet above sea level but in conditions of severe drought this would kick in earlier and help conserve more water.
The area drought … (13 comments)

I knew Trey Thurmond and his wife, Khris were planning a trip down to San Antonio, TX sometime over the holidays but had no idea when.

san antonio: Christmas In The Mansion – The Woodward House in San Antonio, TX - 12/23/08 07:55 PM
Earlier this month, The Woman's Club of San Antonio, opened the historic Woodward House to the public to celebrate their annual "Christmas In The Mansion".
The 9,000 sq.ft. house was decorated from head to toe in the traditional Christmas Red & Green. This year's theme was Gingerbread. Thanks to many Club Members loaning personal collections of Gingerbread decorations and purchasing additional decorations using that theme, members of the club spent a good part of a week preparing the house for the Annual Event.

san antonio: “In Memory of” . . . A Beautiful Fleur De Lis Print. . . found on my trip home to Louisiana - 12/20/08 12:05 PM
Most of my friends here on Active Rain know (from my MEME's) that although I live and sell real estate in the beautiful city of San Antonio, TX; I am a Louisiana "Cajun" girl. I was born and raised in the beautiful Bayou State in Lake Charles, Louisiana. Like I say, "you can take the girl out of the bayou but you can't take the bayou out of the girl".
We drove the 5-1/2 to 6 hour trip this past weekend to attend my husband's family Annual Christmas Gathering. With 6 siblings, wives/husbands, children & grandchildren - it's quite a Gathering.

Spring in Texas is a beautiful time of the year. Down in the San Antonio, TX area we usually have a mild Winter however, we're always more than ready for Winter to end and Spring to arrive.
