Conservation is a lost cause in this town. Just take a drive through the neighborhoods around Fort Apache and Sahara (Summerlin area). Nothing but lush green lawns and trees in every yard. Not to mention all the golf courses!! It makes me so mad when I get home at 2am to see a river of runoff 4 inches high in the gutter from people watering their lawns in my neighborhood.
On a side note, We did recieve a letter from the HoA a month ago stating that the water district has hit my neighborhoods association with $400,000 dollars in water abuse fines in the last year. My neighbors just do not care... They would rather pay the fines and have a nice lawn....bye bye mead!
[quote jetsled]I'm a newbie to the area 3 weeks to be exact and I am very concerned from what I have been reading and hearing about the level of Mead. I am an avid fisherman and enjoy sharing that experience with my family. We all must do our part to conserve our natural resources and instill that same mind set in the future generations. It's unfortunate to know that in probably less than a decade mead will be nothing more than a mud puddle if something isn't done. But enough with me being on my soap box where can I catch some fish?[/quote]
