Probably easier said than done. A single residence would be easier to shut down but condos and multiple unit apartment buildings share water. It’s been my experience that the landlord pays the water bill and adjusts the rent accordingly.

“Apparently the local government out there is so bloated and overstaffed they believe they can administer something like this.”

That’s true ... and so infuriating.

We have really, as conservatives, got to get up off of our collective you-know-whats and get going. This is not tolerable.

“This is an Equal Protection lawsuit, by definition.

A single litigant filing in Federal court, after the fact, will completely end this.”

That is good news. I am fairly certain that there is someone out there who will do what you suggest.

At least I hope and pray that is so.

You just cannot deprive people of basic utilities like that.

I doubt this will withstand a court hearing. Seems like such heavy-handed tactics, or human rights violations, constitutional violations, such as first amendment. Besides, is he going to apply group punishment for what one person of a household is doing or has done, or has been alleged to do?

“It’s the middle of summer. They will be putting people’s lives in more danger by turning off their power and water, than their catching the virus.”

Very true. And as another poster said, apparently all it will take is for one person affected to file a lawsuit and that’s it.

This is probably one of the most asinine decisions ever made by anyone, ever. Government or not.

With, perhaps, the exception of King Henry VII (???) chopping off his wives’ heads one after another. Back in his times, he didn’t know that men determined the gender of the baby.

Today, no one, apparently, can really determine the gender of the baby.

“Okay, Julie,” *speaking to myself* “I’m cutting you off. Now get to bed!” LOL!

Obviously, PDJT is allowing them to dig their own graves. It will expose them for who they really are.

Henry VIII

Full disclosure: Know that mostly thanks to one of my favorite vinyl LPs of all time, Rick Wakeman's classic "The Six Wives of Henry VIII".

Took half of lifetime of searching but finally found a score of the awesome organ tocatta "Jane Seymour".

Even if it doesn’t withstand a court hearing, this is pure, unadulterated tyranny. The mayor should be imprisoned for this.

My sister just moved to Colorado from LA a little while ago. I can’t tell you how relieved I am that she’s no longer there.

Typical leftist control freaks, they’re experts getting back at you for not complying with their punitive controlling policies.

Landlords are strictly forbidden to turn off power on tenants (including not paying tenants). I don’t see how this can fly ...even for a Democrat.

I don’t understand why the mayors of NYC and here in CA want their cities to be ruined. Good people are going to be leaving in drover. How does that help?
