I do not know what you mean by "reclaimed water". If you mean treated water from the water treatment plants then you are incorrect for any home north of 44. Treated water from the water treatment plants is used for golf course irrigation but not residential irrigation north of 44. The homes south of 44 may use treated water from the water treatment plants for residential irrigation.
