Outdoor watering ban in effect as of May 26 for the Bass Lake Woodlands subdivision

In late spring and summer, local water consumption increases, resulting in "peak days" when the daily demand reaches its highest point of the year.

While our water system is designed to manage these peak demands, the water infrastructure (well #2) required to fulfill this need is not yet operational.

By limiting your water usage, we can reduce the demand and ensure our water system remains capable of meeting essential needs.

To ensure the system can continue to meet these essential needs, residents in the Bass Lake Woodlands subdivision are asked to continue to observe the outdoor watering ban implemented on May 26, as the system is still operating at reduced capacity until well #2 is operational.

Please do not use your water for:

• watering or sprinkling of any lawn, garden, tree, shrub, or other outdoor plant
• filling pools or other outdoor water receptacles
• cleaning your driveway
• washing or pressure-washing your home or vehicles
• any other non-essential use

Penalties

The set fine per offence is $200. Our Municipal Law Enforcement Officers will be actively enforcing this ban.

Residents will receive hand-delivered notices when the watering ban is lifted.
