The Town obtains its water from two sources -- Holland Creek and Stocking Lake.
Water is a very precious resource, and therefore the Town is taking several measures to encourage citizens to reduce consumption, including:
-
Implementation of water restrictions during the dry season
-
Installation of water meters at all residences and businesses to help determine and repair any leaks in the system and to monitor consumption
-
Distribution of educational water-wise mail-outs to all households
-
Implementation of regulations making low-flow toilets mandatory in all new construction and renovations
-
Installation of low-flow toilets in all municipal facilities
-
Undertaking capital upgrades to the water supply and storage system
