Dear proprietors,
please find as follows a notice from the College of Property Administrators:
“We would like to remind you that the exemption period, during which water use was allowed for purposes such as filling swimming pools or watering gardens with certain limitations, ends on September 30th.
Therefore, starting from October 1st, it will be mandatory to comply with the provisions of Decree-Law 2/2024, dated January 29th, which restricts water use for filling and refilling swimming pools in areas affected by drought. This law modifies Decree 178/2021, which in its Article 5.2.B states that “the use of water resources suitable for human consumption is prohibited for the following purposes: street cleaning, filling private swimming pools, watering gardens, public and private parks, golf courses, washing cars outside of authorized establishments, ornamental fountains without a closed water circuit, public showers, and water jets.”
It is expected that a new meeting of the Drought Committee will take place in the coming days. As soon as we receive any updates, we will inform you accordingly, along with any new municipal ordinances issued by the various local councils.
Kind regards.”
