Online Poll

Citizens in several Citrus communities are requesting that commissioners increase watering allowances from once-a-week to twice-a-week. What do you think?

A. The once-a-week designation was only supposed to be temporary. It's ok to return to twice-a-week.

B. Watering allowances should be more fluid and seasonal depending on rain amounts and droughts.

C. Only those going over their watering limits should have to water less.

D. Florida has a major overconsumption problem, and people need to get used to watering less. Once-a-week needs to stay put.

E. Whatever is done, all citizens need to have equal rules.
