Pissed off resident United States	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #9 Jul 8, 2012 If it is that devistating using the water outside why have they not shut down the car washes, I wonder if the mayor and village administration have brown grass? Since they won't let us use the water then they need to lift the ban to allow everyone to be able to put in a well. Then lower our taxes because of it!
