CITY OF PARKSVILLE WATERING RESTRICTIONS

For further information, please consult the City’s outdoor water conservation guidelines which were mailed to City of Parksville residents with their recent utility notice, or visit the City’s website at https://www.parksville.ca.
TREES AVAILABLE FROM CITY
As it is spring and residents may be considering planting a new tree in their front yard, the City of Parksville has a $50 rebate program for the purchase of a tree. This program is for trees attaining 16 feet or more at maturity. An application form is available on the City website.

When selecting a tree, attention must also be addressed to the width of the tree at maturity as well as the depth and spread of the roots so that the tree does not have an impact on neighbouring properties. Strata Owners are responsible for any damage which may be caused by the roots on their property or on an adjacent property. The Strata Council should be contacted prior to the planting of a tree.
