Quesnel- In response to this year’s exceptionally warm and dry summer, the City of Quesnel is bringing water restrictions into effect starting Friday morning.

 

Lawn or garden watering may only take place from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. or 7 p.m. to 11 p.m.

 

Odd-numbered street addresses may only water on odd calendar dates, while even-numbered addresses may only water on even dates. For example, today, August 12, only homes that have an address ending with an even number may water during the times listed above.

 

This restriction is placed as a precautionary measure to avoid undue stress on the City’s water system. Water is a valuable resource that must be used wisely.
