Water restrictions

Overstrand currently has no water restrictions.

The Municipality has a permanent provision that prohibits residents from irrigating gardens between 09:00 and 17:00 in order to prevent unnecessary loss of water through evaporation as per the water services by-law clause 42(1)(f).

Residents are once again reminded that water is a scarce source and must be used sparingly.
