Has anyone heard of a residential greywater system in Penticton? I know the city encourages the use of greywater in new commercial buildings, but is greywater a grey area for residences?
When folks asked if chickens were permitted in Penticton the answer was, "Geez, I don't know, lets find out!". This led to the city asking Penticton residents how they felt, many of whom kept chickens during the war. A population that was liberated by spam and instant potatoes saw backyard chooks as a backward step.
Chickens were soon banned, but were eventually allowed by permit only (within the confines of an eighteen month pilot project) thanks to vocal protesters. Now we have an election coming up and the candidates will have plenty of opportunity to dodge the chicken question, since the trial period still has 15 months to go.
At any rate, we're going to start with rain water. Who wants all that water pooling around the foundation of their house anyway? Could rainwater feed a pond? I'm afraid to ask about greywater. I think I already know what the answer is.
