It is a big deal if you have an interest in Punta Chivato. Also if you feel that you're paying too much for water and one person is taking 1/3 or so of the water the community receives and not paying. If you think that he is taking that water to fill his swimming pool for a very few clients he over charges and gives nothing to the community that he has alienated himself form. "Azulito" has made a name for himself in this area and it is important that justice is served. However not many believe it will be.
Oh, by the way, it is not an "old hotel" nor is the story about "a pipe with blue water". It is about a rich arrogant foreigner stealing a lot of water. Water is a Very big deal in Baja and it belongs to the people and regulated by the state. I suppose I should stop here, for now, cuz the sun is rising and I should get on with life. :fire:

We have had zero problems with our water well supply and usauge in over 40 years of operation. Plenty for all if used reasonably..no charge, just help pay maintenance/expense of pumps, tanks, etc. If someone had been diverting or endangering that commodity, I think a lynching mentality would have emerged from the users.

Sure you all know the old one... "whiskey is for drinking.. water is for fighting over" some attribute this to Mark Twain..

I wonder if thats the reason why our water bill has always been strangely high? My father and I could never figure why our bill was so much. We fixed leaky sprinklers,sinks, and we even shut off our valve at the meater when we left. HUMMMMMM
