How many members of the town council own car washes?

I don't see cops policing this one.

That being said, my local town just banned car-washing at home. We're in the midst of a pretty bad drought. They also banned lawn-watering, and some other stuff, too.

>>This ordinance would empower police to write tickets in extreme cases. <<

Huh? Full contact car washing?

From the article:

"I think it's an American's right to participate in a community for the good of the community," says Vice Mayor Maggiore.

I don't know whether to laugh, scream or cry.

I would be almost certain that in this era of environmental law suits the manufacturers of car washing detergents have thought of this problem and made the ingredients biodegradable and non toxic. I would also think the local police would have more important tasks to do than being environmental nannies. Is there no crime in this community or do they have so many cops on the street they need to give them something to do?

"They would probably just issue them a warning and that would be an opportunity to educate the person," says Lindy Kelly, town manager.

Spoken like a true conmmunist dictator. Let's now set up education camps for car washers./SAR

My goodness, do these people even realize that words have meaning. Now the cops will become green teachers and educate the ignorant soul who washed his/her car at home. If this does not represent the myopic thinking of the left, I don’t know what else could.

There's a town council proposal to ban residents from washing their cars in front of their houses, for fear of what the runoff may do to fish in their creeks, and downstream in the ocean.
For fear of? No tests, no science involved, just fear? Why don't they build a water treatment facility?
Freakin' "watermelons" will be the death of freedom in this country and they're worried about fish.

Just tell them it’s a large foot bath used for washing feet. Then it’s okay.

When car washing at your home is banned, only criminals will have clean cars.
