When the summer days heat up, outdoor water usage also tends to rise. We've got tips to help you conserve water and save money on your water bill. Did you know that your lawn only needs watering when there is less than 1 inch of rain per week? Or that you can install a rain barrel to collect roof runoff and use the water on your garden? Every drop counts! 

Over the past few months, our Fire and Emergency Services team responded to an increase in calls about outside burning. Please keep safety top of mind if you're planning to have a fire in your backyard. Remember camp fires, wood burning fire pits, fire bowls and chimneas are not allowed under the City's by-law. Natural gas or propane fire pits are okay when installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
