Zero enforcement. On Friday I saw watering during the day, even on busy Glen Ave by Travell.
Either enforce it or scrap it.And I agree with you it taste like shit and smells like chlorine , apparently management has let our clean deep wells fall into disrepair and chooses to buy surface water to supplant the deficiency so it must be treated with chlorine . Which brings up the question. So we buy all want then why both to restrict ? Just allow irrigation at 3-6am so the inadequate storage tanks don’t get depleted.
Since we must water only during dark hours and only certain days, hire some students to drive around town at 6AM and see all the wet streets (they dry pretty quickly but often are there until 8.) Another good clue is a green lawn–those are the houses that need checking. make a list and have those houses have an early morning check. The town could make a fortune on the fines.
Every year I feel like a fool for complying. And yes, the water does smell and taste like chlorine. I mourn our wonderful well water that was the pride of the town.
Like sheep. Focus energy and anger on the ridiculous water restrictions Absolutely no droughts, hasn’t been in years, steady demand even in the summer, just poor management.
Wake up folks. You are getting played. How do you think this will be when the apartments are built and demand does increase? I for one have given in, did no new planting this year, no flowers, and cut back the mowing. Landscaper and local nursery lost some business. 50k a year in taxes and I can’t water my lawn. For sale sign is up, will take what we can get and regrettable move on after 25 years. Only getting worse and council is useless
3:22. I’m with you. Our only fear is the condition of the lawn will drive people away. Can’t wait to get out.
