Better water planning needed

I was speaking to a councilman from a small Utah town some months ago. His town is smaller than Grantsville but has six water reservoirs. They never have to impose cumbersome restrictions upon their communities because of the foresight and wisdom of the local leadership in their town. Even during the years of the worst drought conditions, they have had enough. Can we please follow their prudent example and build more reservoirs? There is little reason we need to be a city of beautiful homes and ugly lawns any longer.
