Saving water at the tap and using desert plants for landscaping are both ways residents in Sun City West are conserving water.
David Hunter, Property Owners and Residents Association Water Committeeman chairman, said it is sobering to talk about the water issue worldwide. With Arizona in a 22-year drought, making changes is important.
Hunter said turning on the faucet at home for a glass of water comes from the EPCOR system, which is the same for the entire community. But everyone cannot pull water out of the same aquifer without some sort of replenishing.
