Ban on the construction of new, private swimming pools would help to make us a leader in water conservation.

Idea:

With our hot, dry summers, a ban on the construction of new, private swimming pools would help to make us a leader in water conservation.

Staff Feedback:

Thanks for your idea! Fredericton is actually in very good shape in terms of its water use: Municipal records show that City-wide consumption has actually been dropping by a noticeable percentage year after year. Moreover, because we have a universal metering system, residents can see how much water they are using and thus control their water bill by cutting down on the amount of water they use.
