Florida Water Restrictions

Wow, heard on the new that regardless of the rain we've gotten, which has been nice b/c our lawn now looks brand new and fresh and green and trees looks great again etc., that they plan on year round restrictions. That if the correct water level is reached, there will still be a permanent restriction in place year round...that sucks

That sucks. I guess you might wanna get a whole gallon of DP 4-in-1 if you wanna wash your car.

Install fence; install gate in fence; drive car in back yard; wash to hearts desire.

That seriously does suck though. Go water ballon the board members houses.

Over here in Sarasota we can only water our lawn on Saturdays.

But, I get around that because I pull my water out of the creek that runs behind our property. I was given a ticket one morning from the water police, but I called him, explained the situation and he tore it up.

Seems one of my jealous neighbors turned me in because my lawn looks perfect and hers looks like Death Valley.

No water restrictions on washing your that I have heard of.

I sure hope that dosen't happen. I like being able to wash my car whenever I want, its pretty hard to do it at the time they give you.

They claim its rained everywhere but over the lake ... fact is lake is down and government is truly to blame. They made the error in emptying it before Hurricane Wilma and several other scares, now we deal with the outcome.

Funny, water management is pissed because its profit and taxes are down over a million. They actually want people to use more !!!

I dont understand how a place like Florida which rains like everyday or whatever can have water restrictions. This makes no sense, they need to invest some money into building a better water resources infrastructure to save some of that rain water.
