THE ISSUE: Citrus County School Superintendent Sam Himmel.

Online Poll

Citrus County Commissioners, after hearing that water use continues to rise above normal levels due to excessive irrigation, have asked customers to voluntarily reduce their water usage. How would you handle it?

Commissioners should immediately call for permanent restrictions to irrigation.

Letting the public police itself is the best remedy.

Begin charging a sliding scale of punitive rates for customers who exceed use limits.

I don’t understand the problem; we have plenty of water here.

Limit the square footage of grass allowed per homeowner.

Only allow drought resistant grasses to be used and provide incentives to use Florida Friendly Landscaping.
