instead of passing out tickets for 'weeds'.
i own 3 properties in chi, and only one has a water meter. my properties are wild places, much loved by most of my neighbors. but i get at least one warning from the city every damn year.
fortunately, the super of streets and san, the dept in charge of this bullshit, and i have a good relationship. hard fought, but solid now.

rewilding is how we save ourselves here. 1/3 of the planet left to nature.
doin my part, but getting tired of taking the shit.
