Summer water use restrictions help ensure the reliable water supply we all count on. 

We understand that sometimes outdoor water is needed outside of the normally permitted days and times. Residents may be granted an exemption permit to water new yards, trees or shrubs. One exemption permit can be granted per property, per year. The permit is only valid for the seven-day period listed on the permit.

Cost and payment

Permits cost $55 plus applicable taxes and are issued by Utilities Kingston.
