why couldn’t people collect rainwater in Colorado?
In: 52
I don’t know about Colorado specifically, but some municipalities used to ban rainwater collection because of revenue. Sewers need to be maintained, but it’s hard to meter how much sewage a household generates so sewage billing is tied to your water bill. Some people thought if you collected rainwater and used it to flush your toilet, you wouldn’t be paying your fair share of sewage costs.
