The state of California is in the middle of a bad drought that is affecting just about everyone in the state, as long as you are not an entitled Democrat politician, in which case you have all the water you would ever want.
All Californians Feeling Drought Pain Except For Los Angeles’ Entitled Democrat Mayor Who Uses 5X Typical Household
Los Angeles’ Democrat Mayor Eric Garcetti wants LA citizens to cut their water usage by 20%, but in typical entitled Democrat hypocritical fashion, the mayoral mansion,The Getty House, uses about five times (5x) the water of an average LA household.
Isn’t that just like a corrupt & brainless liberal? I can almost hear corrupt Los Angeles Democrat Mayor Eric Garcetti now.. “Do as I say, not as I do, because I’m more important than you, and I’m above the law.”
Despite calls for Angelenos to slash their water use during the statewide drought, the Los Angeles mayoral mansion consumes about five times the water of an average home, according to a report.
Getty House, the official residence of Mayor Eric Garcetti, uses about 2,100 gallons of water per day, according to data cited by the L.A. Weekly.
While the number is about 3 percent less than the amount used by Garcetti’s predecessor, former mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, it could raise questions about Garcetti’s call for Angelenos to cut their own water use by 20 percent by 2016.
Garcetti has taken steps to make the lawn outside the Hancock Park mansion more drought-friendly, including replacing turf and upgrading the irrigation system.
But with an estimated water use rate of about 5.4 times greater than the roughly 390 gallons used by the average L.A. household, Getty House still uses more water than some comparable homes in upscale neighborhoods such as Pacific Palisades, the L.A. Weekly reported.
In a statement cited by L.A. Weekly, Garcetti spokesman Jeff Millman, said that “most of” Getty House “is dedicated space for public events” – about 50 events per year – “with a smaller portion of the house for the family’s private use.”
Under a directive issued by Garcetti last month, city departments have been ordered to sharply cut water use by reducing watering and replacing lawns or other water-intensive landscaping at city facilities, street medians and sidewalk parkways.
The Mayor’s office is also offering Angelenos a $100 rebate to buy their own rain barrels to collect rainwater that falls on the roofs of houses to be used for watering plants and irrigating gardens or lawns.
