Summer Outside Usage
All outside taps for all properties connected to municipal water is tracked through the water meter. Outdoor usage via taps/hoses/sprinkler systems etc. will reflect on utility billings under both water and sewer consumption charges, and may increase usage/billing if there has been significant usage. To avoid higher summertime billings residents may explore option to bring in water to fill pools or hot tubs, and consider adding rain barrel systems to assist with watering of new sod, gardens or washing equipment or vehicles. The RM does not offer any discounts for watering of new sod.
