SUMMER UPDATE from Dieppe... 
"Water conservation is super important! 💦 If you're watering your lawn, garden, or plants, do so before 8 a.m. or after 6 p.m., and only when it’s not raining. Keep it to a max of two hours a day. Just a heads-up: if your house number is even, you can water on even days, and if it’s odd, you can water on odd days. 🔗 Bylaw 78-5: https://dieppe.cc/42sdp7z"
