Excessive water users in Calabasas can get a little help with conservation from the Las Virgenes Municipal Water District through the installation of a flow restrictor. The district began installing them on June 1, after warning customers about their water use and seeing the flagrant use continue. The district intended to install 20 restrictors on June 1, but most customers decided that they were more committed to water conservation than they previously realized and would use less water. The district leaves the flow restrictor in place for two weeks. If the customer tries to remove the restrictor, they will be fined $2,500.
