Daniel Wilson with the Storm Alert Center attended the standing room only meeting at City Hall in Liberty, KY on Monday, June 15, 2026 and shared the following information....

The Stste of Emergency declaration declared in Liberty, KY on Monday basically requires residents to conserve water immediately. The County will follow the City's guidelines and enact a similar declaration, thus including all of Casey County.

Among many things, no outdoor watering, filling pools, pressure washing, take shorter showers and be sure dishwashers and washing machines are full before use. No vehicle washing or decorative fountain washing (unless needed to preserve aquatic life). 

Basically all unnecessary water use is prohibited and violations can cost $250 for the first offense, $500 for a second violation, and subsequent offenses may require water to be shut off.
