Calgary's New Watering Rules: Save Water, Save Cash
Description
Calgarys city council introduces a year-round outdoor watering schedule to enhance water efficiency, with odd-numbered addresses watering from seven p.m. to ten a.m. on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, and even-numbered spots on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. This is part of a broader plan to reduce per-person water use by twenty percent by 2040. However, not all council members support the mandatory schedule, with Mayor Jeromy Farkas advocating for voluntary measures and Councillor Andre Chabot emphasizing cost savings and demand pressure relief. The new rules come with a potential $200 fine for non-compliance.
