Couple face $500 fine for letting their lawn turn brown - after they stopped watering it to comply with California water-saving rules
Hilarious. They have no water to drink but the local Stazi wants those lawns looking great. If anyone needed evidence of why Cali is circling the drain and everyone is leaving, here you go...

ZitatA Southern California couple who scaled back watering due to drought received a letter from the city of Glendora warning that they could face fines if they don't get their brown lawn green again.
The San Gabriel Valley Tribune reports the letter from the code enforcement bureau says the dry grass could be a 'potential public nuisance problem.'
Michael Korte and his wife Laura Whitney are told if they don't revive the lawn they could be hit with up to $500 in fines and possible criminal action.
On Tuesday — when the couple received the letter — state regulators authorized fines up to $500 for overwatering lawns.
'Despite the water conservation efforts, we wish to remind you that limited watering is still required to keep landscaping looking healthy and green,' the letter stated.
It included pictures of the dead lawn with a red line through it, a weedy line similarly crossed out, and finally an uncrossed green lawn with a sprinkler.
'It is telling me I’d better get my lawn green and I have 60 days to do it,' Laura said.

The best part of the article is that these Leftists drones are going to try and comply with the notice with low water grass seed instead of calling out the corrupt system that has fined them.
