Council-in-brief

Universal Water Metering Strategy

Burnaby City Council approved recommendations to continue the transition towards universal water metering across the City. Currently, all new commercial, multi-dwelling buildings and single- and two-family dwellings are required to install a water meter prior to occupancy. The new recommendations outline the next steps, including installing meters for homes that already have a water service connection that can fit a meter, and for homes with existing secondary suites. It is anticipated that these actions will take up to 3 years to complete. Installing universal water meters helps encourage water conservation and early leak detection, reducing wastage in the water system.
