2025 City of Barrie Drinking Water Survey

The City wants your feedback about Barrie's tap water.

The City of Barrie is committed to delivering safe, high-quality drinking water that meets or exceeds all provincial standards under Ontario's Safe Drinking Water Act.

We first asked residents for feedback on Barrie's tap water in early 2023. By asking the same questions again, we can monitor changes, measure progress, and identify opportunities for continued improvement.
