Swimming pool installed in drought
Editor:
While everyone I know is doing everything to conserve water, someone in my neighborhood is putting in a swimming pool. Do they need a permit to do so? Was a permit issued? If a permit was issued, where is the thinking on this? The amount of water to be gushed into a swimming pool would be more than enough to water my garden for many months. Does anyone have an answer to this mockery? I’m sure there are many reading this letter who are doing their best to conserve water and wonder, as I do, how anyone could install a pool.
