Marlin car washes, laundromats get temporary exception under Stage 4 water restrictions

Laundromats and car washes within city limits have had their hours of operation amended as a result of improvements to the current water crisis in the city.

MARLIN, Texas — Editor's Note: The attached video aired on July 8.

The City of Marlin has updated their Stage 4 water restrictions to give updated hours to two types of businesses.

Announced Thursday evening, the new restrictions allow for laundromats and car washes to adjust their hours. Under the new rules, laundromats are able to operate between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., while car washes are allowed to operate between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m.

All other Stage 4 restrictions still remain in place, the city says. Residents are also advised to conserve water as much as is feasibly possible.

The city says the changes are a result of improvements in the city's current water crisis but may be reverted if the updated restrictions don't continue to improve the current water situation.
