The language is pretty clear. Posted again below:

Reclaimed Water
Reclaimed water remains subject to voluntary watering hours, unless blended with another water source or restricted by the local government or utility.


You don't know whether the local government or utility has restricted the usage of reclaimed water. If they have then the watering restriction is 1 day and is not voluntary. Until that is determined, you cannot say that 1 day per week is voluntary for those on reclaimed water.

You can continue to try to argue against this but the language is clear and we don't know whether the government or utility has issued such a restriction.

I was just filling in the details because the article was misleading by leaving out the part of the rules that exempted reclaimed water. I think this is useful information because many people in The Villages are exempt from the watering restrictions because they use reclaimed water for their irrigation. Don't you agree that telling people that they are exempt from the restriction is helpful information? The only reason this subject came up was because the management district set some rules for water restrictions, but their rules exempted reclaimed water, a fact that was omitted from the newspaper article. I didn't speculate on anything. I just presented information that was stated in the management district rules that were not stated in the newspaper article. These are facts, not speculations.
