Water Shortage?
So I see in an online Villages News issue that there is a water shortage for certain areas of the Villages and possible water limitations will be set in future. With that being the case how did a nearby bottling company get approved to bottle many, many gallons of water?

It is part of a natural cycle
1. It is dry 2. The sky is full of water 3. The sky is falling 4. It is wet

The plant is approved to use 496,000 gallons of water daily.
The Villages uses 23 million gallons per day. The plant will use the same amount of water as 2,156 people. |

Probably a year ago so, the sky was falling because Northern California was experiencing a sever drought. Today, the reservoirs are full, there is plenty of water, and record snow pack in the mountains. It will rain in Florida. We may suffer a dry spell, but it will rain regardless of what the politicians do. Just be patient and cut back where you need to. At this point, we have not been asked to cut back on water usage.

A year or two after I moved here, Florida was declared in a state of drought. This lasted for a couple of years. Yet, it was only recommended that water be conserved, no real enforcement. Florida (and Floridians) seems to not quite understand the need to conserve water. California learned the hard way when it lost a few aquifers. Hopefully, we'll learn from its mistakes, but I doubt it.
