I live interstate and our town has only one small dam for a population of over 16,000. A new dam has been promised for years, but that is all it is, promises that never seem to see the light of day. Our population grows, particularly in the summer season, and the use of water increases with it. Still no dam. We live in one of the states driest areas and have just come out of drought for the first time in 6 years. Two years ago we were on strict restrictions, but now these have been put down to level 1 - and these will be permanent. Hopefully this will help our situation somewhat. Some hosing allowed, but only at night. No driveway or path washing, and cars on lawns only. I can live with that.
