Water conservation measures in effect during the summer months
 
With the current hot weather conditions, water is in high demand throughout York Region. The City of Vaughan is taking this opportunity to remind residents and businesses about the outdoor water use restrictions outlined in the Outdoor Water Use By-law.
 
The by-law restricts outdoor water use from May 15 to Sept. 30 every year as follows:
 
  • Even numbered street addresses are restricted to watering on even numbered calendar days and odd numbered street addresses are restricted to watering on odd numbered calendar days
  • Lawn watering is allowed in the morning between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m., and in the evening between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. on any permitted calendar day
  • For industrial, commercial and institutional properties, watering is restricted to a maximum period of three hours between midnight and 7 a.m. on any permitted calendar day
  • There is a four-week grace period for new sod and seed
 These water conservation measures help ensure an uninterrupted supply of water for residents and businesses throughout the region.
