No state currently does. Very few have limits on the amount of catchment, the only one I know is Utah and the limit is 2500 gallons. Other states just say it can’t be used for potable water
Yeah, same state that wanted us to get rid of lawns but only allows rain water collection before the water hits the ground. Thought that was a weird wrinkle
Buy a house not in a HOA. Problem solved. I grow stuff in my front yard every year
There are municipalities and counties that have classist lawn laws, too. In some places you either have to fight them and win or leave.
Right, I had a friend who had a cop show up to their house because… their grass was too long. Absolutely unhinged.
That didn’t come to mind. Where I’ve lived that’s never been a thing, the state even gave us tax credits to not have a lawn
Some places even make it illegal to collect rainwater. It’s ridiculous.
