Information and details available at calgaryca/restrictions or by calling 311

Calgary is gearing up to implement a permanent watering schedule, but the city says the move won't rule out the possibility of outdoor water restrictions in the future.

The city is currently in Stage 1 of its outdoor water restriction program, which means residents are only allowed to water their lawns and gardens on designated days.

The city says the new permanent watering schedule will be based on the same principles as the current restriction program, but it will be more flexible and will allow residents to water their lawns and gardens more often.

The city says the new watering schedule will be announced in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, residents are reminded to follow the current outdoor water restriction program.

Conclusion

The city's move to implement a permanent watering schedule is a positive step towards conserving water. The new schedule will be more flexible than the current restriction program, but it will still help to reduce water consumption.
