[1977 Water Conservation and Rationing Plan]
Whereas, the Public Utilities Commission on March 22, 1977 has adopted a mandatory water conservation and rationing plan relating to the use of water from the San Francisco Water Department, this Board of Supervisors hereby declares that a water shortage condition prevails in the City and County of San Francisco due to conditions prevailing throughout the State of California and intends herewith to prohibit the usage of water which is wasteful during such water shortage condition to the end that sufficient water will be available for human consumption, sanitation and fire protection.
The specific uses prohibited in Section 603.1 are nonessential, and if allowed would constitute a wastage of water.
