The City of Hamilton provides water conservation tips to its residents through the municipal website and offers a sale on Rain Barrels with downspout disconnection and rain barrel installation instructions. The City of Hamilton also informs residents in rural Hamilton during low water conditions to reduce their water consumption in particular outdoor water use. This reduction is voluntary and enforcement doesn't take place.
