There appears to be no signs outside the building. Also car workshops leave water hoses pouring with water after washing cars. This is an abuse even when there is not a water shortage and a great contributor to it. Monitoring of companies’ use of water should be carried out as they use and waste far more than the general public
who are constantly made to feel guilty about the little, in comparison, they use.
If householders can’t water their gardens, why should companies who value them less. Household gardens add to the value of a house and are enjoyed by the family; companies to do not enjoy theirs and employees take no notice of them and would not add or detract from the value of the company. Seeing such extreme wastage does not motivate the public to restrict their use at home.
