Stage 1 water restrictions will come into effect on May 1st for the Black Creek-Oyster Bay, Comox Valley, Royston and Union Bay Water Systems.

Under stage 1, lawn and garden sprinkling is permitted between the hours of 5 am – 8 am and 7 pm – 10 pm, on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday for even numbered addresses and Wednesday, Friday and Sunday for odd numbered addresses.

“With spring upon us, it’s important to consider our water usage in every water system in the Comox Valley,” explains Mike Herschmiller, Manager of Water Services.

“Although we may continue to see rain for the next few weeks, this time of year is a good reminder for residents to think about how they use water and to conserve when possible.”
