As of early December 2019, Beacon has emerged out of the drought that started in October 2019, according to City Administrator Anthony Ruggiero, who made the announcement at the 12/09/2019 City Council Meeting.

“The reservoirs continue to refill,” explained Anthony, with some still being below normal. But the Melzingah Reservoir (the city’s smallest) is “running over,” he said. In 2018, the drought proclamation was lifted in February.
