STAGE 3 – Once per Week Watering CURRENT STAGE (Effective July 19, 2021)
Stage 3 restrictions are in effect, outdoor watering is limited to the follow days and times.
ODD numbered Civic addresses: Sundays only.
EVEN numbered Civic addresses: Saturdays only.
During Stage 3 restrictions, no person shall fill a swimming pool, garden pond, or decorative fountain, or wash vehicles, boats, bikes, RVs, ATVs, sidewalks, decks, or driveways at any time.
Manual Sprinklers:
Residents using manual sprinklers may water from 7:00am to 9:00am and from 7:00pm to 9:00pm on their designated watering day.
Automatic Timed Sprinklers:
Residents with automatic timed sprinklers may water either from 12:00am (midnight) to 4:00am OR during manual sprinkling hours on their designated day.
In addition, Flower gardens, vegetable gardens, and newly planted lawns may be hand-watered at any time using a hand-held nozzle (not manual sprinklers).
To spread water consumption throughout the week, municipal watering will be scheduled to avoid overlap with residents’ use on the weekend. Watering of municipal assets may be prioritized in order to preserve boulevards, planters, and City Park over other grassy spaces, while achieving a net reduction of at least 50% in outdoor water use.
