“‘I got a warning that says to provide adequate maintenance to (my) lawn or garden by watering, mowing or re-seeding,’ Martin Padilla said.  ‘I got everything done — nothing else to complain about except for watering the grass because the grass is not completely green,’ Padilla said.  But Padilla was still fined, and learned he owes more than $420.  Padilla said he is stuck between a rock and a hard place.  ‘To make that lawn green, I need to use a lot of water, but the water company says if we don’t cut water usage by 20 percent, (we) get a $500 ticket,’ Padilla told KCRA 3. ‘But I’m paying a $429 ticket for not using enough water, so what should I do?'”
