Stage one water restrictions are still in place On 26 November 2020, Auckland Council’s governing body voted to adjust mandatory water restrictions for residential water users. From 14 December 2020, residents can:
Use hand-held hoses and water blasting devices so long as they are fitted with trigger nozzles.
Important:
The restrictions only apply when connected to the metropolitan water supply network.
If you have a rain water or grey water tank you can use that water as you wish ie: you can connect a hose to those tanks and wash your car/vehicle, boat etc.
