Thank you for your inquiry regarding Fire Hydrants here within the City of Lathrop. Unfortunately, the California Fire Code requires our Fire Hydrants to be painted their color based on what the available gallons per minute in the event of a fire. Approved color coordination is industry standard in the Fire Service.
