NASEBY: A conserve-water notice has been issued for the holiday season in Naseby due to high demand.

The Central Otago District Council website said garden watering was allowed only between 8pm and 8am for no more than 30 minutes on one spot.

Shorter showers, turning off the tap while brushing teeth or shaving and doing only full loads of laundry or dishes were also recommended.

Reducing water use now should avoid further restrictions, the website said.
