Among the addresses that received "notices of exceedance" was an $18 million Hidden Hills property, which exceeded its allocated water budget in June by more than 1,400% - or 90,000 gallons.https://t.co/qqmRahxsH9

F-ck em all. Omg California is literally on fire and is drying up and people literally don't care. I was driving on the 37 and the dry wetland was sooo effing sad. Ugh.

instead of being fined they should just be cut off lmao then they can't break the rules any more lmao

I was gonna say, that's the way to stop them.

Exactly - they should have had their water restricted AGES ago.

A friend visited Costa Rica and said that they turn off all water during certain hours every single day, for everyone, from like 2-6 pm or something.

No bullshit fines, just no water for anyone, so no chance for the rich to fuck around and be greedy pigs....but that's also more of an interdependent culture, they have more of a social contract than the independent "I do what I want and it's all about me" Americans in the US.

But also fine them percentages. The rich will have a problem when fined 50% of their income per month. And then they'll be all mad when stuck in litigation and forced to spend even more money.

Portland, Oregon also publishes these assholes in the paper. They're basically all in the same bougie suburb, Lake Oswego.
