Water Conservation

We are committed to conserving water in the South Bruce area. To encourage better water conservation practices and regulate the use of water on properties, we have created water guidelines and restrictions through our Water Conservation By-law.

If you plan on watering your lawn, flower beds, streets, or gardens, view your property’s watering time.
