Sandy City official urges residents to use Water Smart Portal to track and save water

Nikki Wyman, Sandy City's Water Education and Public Engagement Coordinator, urged residents during a city meeting to use the free Water Smart Portal to monitor household water use and “potentially conserve both water and money.”

The portal, Wyman said, provides a day-by-day view of household water consumption, lets users track trends, spot leaks before they appear on bills, set monthly goals and compare usage with similar homes; she told listeners to visit sandy.utah.gov/watersmart and log in with an account number and ZIP code to get started.

Wyman opened her brief presentation by asking, “Do you wanna slow the cash flow you are spending on water?” She described the portal as easy to use on a phone or computer and recommended practical steps residents can take once they know their usage: “watering early in the morning, fixing leaks, or switching to a smart irrigation controller.”

Her remarks were a public information item; there was no vote, motion or formal council action tied to the presentation. The announcement took about a minute and 22 seconds during the meeting and was framed as a consumer-facing tool provided by Sandy City water officials.

Wyman closed by encouraging residents to try the portal: “Take a few minutes and check it out.”
