Stage 2 Water Restrictions include:
Automatic Watering (sprinkler or irrigation)
  • Even Numbered Civic Addresses on Mondays and Thursdays
  • Odd Numbered Civic Addresses on Tuesdays and Fridays
Manual Watering (handheld hose)
  • Any day at any time
Non-essential water use
  • Recommended to avoid
