A drought-induced water shortage could force Wichita officials to idle the city's fountain systems this summer.
City Manager Robert Layton says water use across all city operations is under review.
City officials say Cheney Reservoir could dry up by mid-2015 if the drought continues, and the city would no longer have enough water to meet demand if that happens.
The city has a list of the most recent drought surveys and practical tips for reducing water usage at its public works and utilities page at wichita. gov.
