All lawn watering prohibited starting Aug. 4.
Metro Vancouver will implement Stage 2 watering restrictions — which prohibits all lawn watering — starting Friday, Aug. 4, due to continued high water demand and forecasted hot, dry weather.
“Consistent above-average temperatures combined with high water demand have put extra pressure on the water supply,” said Malcolm Brodie, chair of Metro Vancouver’s Water Committee. “Water conservation is imperative, and everyone must do their part. The number one thing residents can do is reduce their outdoor water use.”
*Non-residential properties are subject to similar restrictions on lawn and garden watering, as well as filling and topping up aesthetic water features and washing impermeable surfaces. Watering at golf courses and sports fields is reduced, but they can still water to protect these private and public assets — many use supplemental water sources or are operating under an approved member jurisdiction water management plan. *Water play parks may not operate unless they have user-activated switches.
