Did you know that the City of Richardson began a pilot program with the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) last spring that offers free residential sprinkler system evaluations? The program is continuing in 2026 and is part of conservation efforts to protect our future water supply through more efficient water usage.   

If you want to meaningfully participate in Richardson’s recycling, it’s important to avoid being a “wish-cycler,” i.e. throwing something into the blue bag without being sure it can be recycled—just one wrong item can contaminate the whole bag, sending its entire contents to the trash.
