OK, I decided NOT to Say Shame on You, Carlsbad
I was going to title this "Shame on You, Carlsbad."
I changed my mind.
I was at brunch along the Coast Highway/Route 101 today and noticed water on the street nearby. What was disturbing, in this time of Stage 2 Drought Mandatory Water Conservation, is that water had started gushing from the sprinkler system in the median.
No, the sprinklers weren't on (you aren't supposed to irrigate on Sundays)...there was clearly a significant leak in the irrigation pipe. I would estimate the water was leaking about 1 gallon every 1-2 minutes. And it went on for a while. You can see in the photo that this was not a small drip.
The Carlsbad Marathon was about over along that stretch of road, and one of the local police came by on his motorcycle. He stopped at the water, pulled out his phone, and made a call.
I was pleased to see someone from the City of Carlsbad pull up in a truck about 20 minutes later. You would sure hate to see that water continue all night until someone came in to the office on Monday. Hopefully he got it taken care of before the City costs us taxpayers a ton of money. LOL
