The Chatham-Kent Public Utilities Commission is implementing lawn watering restrictions — only customers with even-numbered addresses will be allowed to water their lawns on even-numbered days and odd-numbered addresses on odd days.
With the extended hot dry weather that this region has been experiencing, lawn watering has placed extra demands on the Water Treatment Plants. More restrictions could be on the way.
Chatham-Kent Public Utilities Commission has implemented lawn watering restrictions for ALL customers effective today.
Odd numbered addresses water on odd days.
Even numbered addresses water on even days.
Newly sodded lawns have a 2 month grace period.https://t.co/I0Y1VrcBYM pic.twitter.com/fWH0xVaEpM— Municipality of Chatham-Kent (@MunicCK) July 6, 2020
Leamington and Kingsville have moved to Stage 2 as of 12:01am this morning.
The two were the final regions in the province to reopen.
Premier Doug Ford made the announcement yesterday, and after promising to not cut his hair until all of Ontario was into Stage 2, he said he’ll find a barber in Leamington or Kingsville to have it done.
As of tomorrow at 12:01am, Leamington and Kingsville will join the province in entering Stage 2 of reopening.
Thank you to the great people of these two regions who have worked together with us during this difficult period. pic.twitter.com/HhQHzW8V5o

The 2020 Major League Baseball schedule has been released.
The Toronto Blue Jays season will begin July 24th in Tampa and their first home game will be on the 29th vs the defending World Series champion Washington Nationals.
The Detroit Tigers season also starts on July 24th in Cincinnati. The first game at Comerica Park will be July 27th.
Both teams seasons will wrap up (unless they make the playoffs – lol) on July 27th. Each team will play 60-games.
Click here for the Jays full schedule and here for the Tigers.
Of course, no fans will be allowed into the stadiums – so we’ll all be watching at home.
Over the weekend Elon Musk, the Tesla CEO announced a new product on Twitter: Tesla short shorts with “S3XY” emblazoned on the back.
They’re so popular that the website went down at one point.
The shorts are part of a long-running joke aimed at Tesla shorters, that is, people who borrow and sell Tesla stock, hoping for a decline in price so they can buy it cheaper and make a profit
