Marin water utility nears decision on easing limits, penalties
Water-use limits and penalties might soon be repealed in response to bountiful supplies in the county’s largest reservoirs. On Tuesday, the Marin Municipal Water District board will consider rescinding rules that took effect in December that set water allotments for residents and charged penalty rates for overuse. The discussion could result in the first rollback of drought rules adopted last year when the district and its 191,000 residents faced the dire potential of depleting local reservoir supplies by 2022.
