Stage 2 Water Restrictions will come into effect on July 1st for the Black Creek-Oyster Bay, Comox Valley, and Union Bay Water Systems. The Comox Valley Water System includes residents in the City of Courtenay, Town of Comox, and all three electoral areas.
Under the recently adjusted Stage 2 water restrictions, lawn and garden sprinkling is now permitted between the hours of 6:00 am – 7:30 am and 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm on Tuesday and Saturday for even numbered addresses, and Wednesday and Sunday for odd numbered addresses.
This spring and summer, the CVRD and City of Courtenay Bylaw teams will be patrolling areas and issuing warnings and tickets to those not following these restrictions. Fines start at $100 and are subject to the maximum fines under the Local Government Act and the Offence Act. CVRD Bylaw is responsible for water enforcement in the Town of Comox as well.
