Are you odds or evens? Permanent sprinkler times are in place to help conserve our water during the dry season and are based on odd and even house numbers. Remember - your garden can survive and thrive on less water than you think!

Happy hump day, Cairns!
🐕 Are you still waiting on a dog tag?
This is just a friendly reminder that dog tags are no longer issued for dog rego renewals as we have moved to a 'life time' tag system. You only receive a tag the first time you register. We will of course still replace lost or damaged tags.
Happening now! Targafest on the Cairns Esplanade. Come on down to see all the cars up close until 9pm.
A reminder to pet owners that there will be fireworks on the Cairns Esplanade tonight following the Cairns Festival Grand Parade. If you're heading out, please make sure pets are safe and secure and are wearing their ID tags in case they do manage to escape.
Road closures will apply on Saturday 25 August for the Cairns Festival Grand Parade:
- Grafton St (Minnie to Florence St) 9am – 7pm
- Minnie St (Sheridan St to Esplanade) 2pm – 7pm
- Cairns Esplanade (Minnie St to Spence St) 10am – midnight
- Pier Point Rd no access to bus stops 5pm – 8pm
The parade will start at 5pm and will travel along the Cairns Esplanade roadway from Minnie Street to Spence Street.
This week is Cairns Seniors Week. There is a wide range of activities and events on offer throughout the week. Find the full program at http://bit.ly/2OKmUt1
