Effective 12 p.m. on Thursday, June 4, 2026, the City of Armstrong is activating Stage 2 Water Conservation Restrictions.

These restrictions are being implemented in response to the Provincial Drought Rating for our region and are intended to help reduce water consumption during the dry season.

• Pleasant Valley Local Area Service

• Highland Park Local Area Service
• Stardell Local Area Service
• Silver Star Local Area Service
•  Lansdowne Local Area Service
• Residents of Spallumcheen receiving City of Armstrong water

Per City Bylaw 1926, 2024, Stage 2 Water Use and Conservation Restrictions are as follows:

 Watering Schedule

• Addresses ending in 00–49: Tuesdays and Saturdays
