Water Works By-law Decorative Fountains

Summary

• Council chose the staff-recommended option (Recommendation A) to keep non-compliant non-recirculating decorative park fountains off, pending results of the Water Assets Condition Assessment and Rehabilitation Planning report expected in Q3 2023, rather than proceeding with by-law exemptions to operate them for summer 2023.
• Non-recirculating fountains are currently prohibited under the Water Works By-law and Drinking Water Conservation By-law; exemptions would have required by-law amendments.
