The municipality had put in place Stage 3 water restrictions on June 26 due to the historic heatwave.With water usage back at Stage 2, residents can water one day per week with a sprinkler.
Locals are expected to follow a schedule that has different neighborhoods watering their lawns on different days.The schedule is as follows:
Monday - Valleycliffe, Hospital HillTuesday - Downtown
Wednesday - Dentville, Business Park, North YardsThursday - Loggers Lane/ Finch Drive, Quest University
Friday - Garibaldi HighlandsSaturday - Garibaldi Estates
Sunday - BrackendaleEven-numbered addresses: 6 a.m. to 9 a.m.
Odd-numbered addresses: 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.Watering with a hand-held container or device with automatic shut-off is allowed on any day between 6 to 9 a.m. and 7 to 10 p.m.
The District advises using a timer ($15 to $40 at local hardware stores) to pre-set your sprinkler the night before your designated watering day.
