Watering Restrictions Increase Aug. 4

Stage 2 watering restrictions are in effect starting Aug. 4 in an effort to conserve water during the ongoing drought. The policy affects both residential and non-residential areas. Under Stage 2 restrictions, lawn watering is NOT permitted. Additionally, there is no filling of aesthetic water features or washing of impermeable surfaces, such as driveways. Some exemptions apply. Watering of trees, shrubs, and flowers is still allowed during specified hours. Visit newwestcity.ca/lawnwatering for details on what is allowed and when.
