Residents are reminded that watering times for gardens have changed back to between 6pm and 6am.
This restriction is as per the water service by-laws, section 44 (3):
– Watering of gardens is only allowed between 6pm and 6am from 1 September to 31 March; and between 4pm and 8am from 1 April to 31 August
– It is still prohibited to use hosepipes to clean paved areas and driveways with municipal water
