Case Study: The Santa Rosa Parks Department saves time and manpower with HydroPoint WeatherTRAK

City Parks Department Replaces Aging Irrigation Infrastructure with Remote Access, Saving Time & Manpower

The Santa Rosa Parks Department, responsible for maintaining 65 parks and other city landscapes in Santa Rosa, California, was struggling with aging, inefficient irrigation systems. Staff had to drive to remote sites to troubleshoot issues and manually adjust analog timers, all while facing staffing constraints and pressure to reduce water usage.

HydroPoint Data Systems provided a web-based remote irrigation solution using WeatherTRAK controllers, starting with 11 units in the parks farthest from the city center. The system improved team efficiency, reduced overtime and weekend site visits, and delivered automated alerts and reports—saving labor hours and making the crew feel like they had effectively added another staff member.
