Following weeks of heavy rainfall, Aurora city leaders expect to roll back drought restrictions that called for a surcharge on residents' and business owners' water bills if they watered their lawns more than twice per week. Water officials cautioned though that the situation is constantly evolving, citing the way Aurora's reservoirs are replenished outside of city limits. 'While we are not at our needed 75% of storage quite yet, both the weather and runoff projections are looking positive for the next couple of weeks and odds of needing to continue drought restrictions into July are minimal,' Aurora Water General Manager Marshall Brown said.
