Water Conservation

Hands cradle a bowl of water

The Town of Kingsville is committed to the preservation of water and the protection of its water supply system. 

Lawn Watering By-law

To ensure our water distribution system has enough water to meet the needs of users, (including fire protection, medical health, sanitation and personal drinking uses) the Town of Kingsville has a Lawn Watering By-Law that outlines days and times you can water your lawn, determined by the last digit of your address. Please help us maintain service levels and avoid a total water ban on outside water use by following these important guidelines.  Failure to comply may result in fines. 

Lawn Watering Restrictions in Kingsville: 

  1. Lawn or garden watering is only permitted on alternate days. Municipal addresses ending with 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 can water on even calendar days and those ending with 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 can water on odd calendar days.
  2. Lawn or garden watering is only allowed between 5am and 8am and between 6pm and midnight on permitted days.
  3. Residents with a newly seeded or sodded lawn can apply for a permit temporarily exempting them from these restrictions.
  4. If the demands on the water supply and distribution system become so severe that the level of service is threatened, a total ban on outside water use will be declared.
  5. Breaking of these rules may result in a fine up to $5,000.

Ten Tips to Save Water at Home

  1. Turn the faucet off when brushing your teeth
  2. Wait until you have a full load before running the washing machine or dishwasher
  3. Use a low-flow showerhead and faucet aerators.
  4. Repair leaks
  5. Install a low flow or dual flush toilet
  6. Follow the Town's Lawn Watering by-law, and consider installing a rain sensor on an irrigation system.
  7. Use a rain barrel for outdoor watering.
  8. Catch stormwater runoff from your roof and driveway with a rain garden
  9. Closely monitor water usage on your water bill. Consider a home water audit
  10. Share what you've learned about saving water with your friends, family and neighbours
