The Chesterfield Daily

I guess nice weather with no rain isn’t such a good thing. We are beginning a season of drought and Chesterfield County residents and businesses are asked to start conserving water now. Although it’s only voluntary right now, if we don’t get any rainfall by October 10th “The Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors will be asked to implement mandatory water restrictions” (chesterfield.gov).

How can you save water? Chesterfield.gov has released conservation measures to follow.

The Chesterfield-Colonial Heights Department of Social Services are looking for volunteers to help in preparing taxes for lower income families. Your help is needed on Thursdays from 4:30 to 6:30 between mid-January and mid-April (presumably the 15th).

For more information, call Laura Doyle, volunteer coordinator for the Virginia Initiative for Employment not Welfare, at (804) 706-7655.
