Adherence to Stage 2 Water Restrictions

 

Dear Members,

We are currently operating under Stage 2 water restrictions, and everyone must adhere to these rules to maintain the sustainability of our water supply. Unfortunately, we have observed that some community members are not following the designated watering days and times, leading to excessive water use and depleted reserves. This non-compliance is causing significant strain on our water resources, resulting in lower water pressure across the community.

Please remember the Stage 2 watering schedule:

  • Even-numbered addresses (0, 2, 4, 6, 8): Sundays and Thursdays
  • Odd-numbered addresses (1, 3, 5, 7, 9): Saturdays and Wednesdays

Watering is only permitted between 8:00 p.m. and midnight on your designated days.

The Importance of Compliance

Sticking to the schedule is critical for keeping water reserves at acceptable levels. If the current demand continues due to non-compliance, we will be forced to implement Stage 3 restrictions immediately. This will impose even stricter limits on water use, affecting everyone in the community.

Consequences of Non-Compliance

Failure to comply with Stage 2 restrictions could lead to:

  • Further depletion of our water reserves
  • Mandatory Stage 3 restrictions
  • Potential fines and penalties

We must all work together to prevent this situation from escalating. Your cooperation is essential to ensure our community has the water it needs. Please be considerate and follow the rules.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

 

Best regards,

Robin Mayall
General Manager, RCH
