Coen community are being advised that – effective today, Thursday 21 November 2025 – ALERT water restrictions have been lifted.
While restrictions are no longer in place, Council encourages all residents to continue using water wisely — especially as we head into extreme weather season.
Here are a few simple ways to help conserve our community’s water:
- Don’t leave taps or hoses running unattended.
- Fix or report leaks as soon as possible.
- Avoid watering between 10am and 4pm when it’s hottest.
- Use a timer on your taps to help reduce water waste.
REMEMBER: Every drop counts — thank you for doing your part to help protect your water supply.
