The city of Guelph has changed watering restrictions due to the recent hot, dry weather.
The city’s Outside Water Use program has moved to Level 1 Yellow from Level 0 Blue.
In Level 1 yellow, homeowners are allowed to water their lawn from 7 to 9 a.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. on odd or even calendar dates by address number.
