"Water Wise" rules

Since July 2014, "Water Wise" rules apply to properties within its area of operations. The Rules are:

  • All hoses must now have a trigger nozzle.
  • Hand held hoses, sprinklers and watering systems may be used only before 10 am and after 4 pm on any day – to avoid the heat of the day
  • No hosing of hard surfaces, until shovelling and sweeping most of the dirt has been completed first, this includes places such as paths and driveways. Washing vehicles is allowed.
  • Fire hoses may be used for fire fighting activities only.[7]
