Sprinkler ban lifted

Southland District Council has today removed the ban on unattended sprinklers, and removed flow restrictions on water carriers.

Level 1 restrictions still apply. This means you can water your gardens only between 7pm and 7am, and watering systems are not allowed to be left unattended overnight.

Please continue to use water responsibly and report any leaks to SDC on 0800 732 732 or on our website:

Don't ignore leaks

A water leak, however small, can waste a lot of water over time. What starts as a drip can often deteriorate and become a bigger, more costly issue. If you are aware of dripping taps or small leaks call a plumber and get it looked at straight away. If you notice or suspect leaks on the mains or anywhere outside your property let us know about it as soon as possible by ringing us on 0800 732 732. Somebody will be available to talk to you, 24-7.
