I’m one of the Redlands residence who is now dealing with a broken pump thanks to the jacked up ways of others.  Thanks guys. Glad I paid for a share and a pump so you could be greedy and dry up the ditch before it hit my house… My lawn is nice and DEAD with a beautiful shade of yellow!  On the Ute water use.. Of course water use goes up. It’s summer time, the kids are home, the family is visiting and oh yea, don’t let me forget that one thing.. HYDRATION, it’s hot outside so I’m drinking a lot more water and making sure my pets are too..  If we can afford to share our water with other states than I think we have every right to have a nice TALL glass of ice water from our homes..

We’re Ute customers who recognize we live in a desert. It’s not the kid’s showers, the tall glasses of water and the pet bowls that are the issue. It’s people who think a yard in Grand Junction should look like one in Minnesota.
