Social Media Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Skipped showers and rainwater-powered toilets are among the methods an Arizona town has adopted as it battles to cope without water. Rio Verde Foothills, a suburb of Scottsdale, was cut off from the city's water supply on 1 January. The controversial move left hundreds without access to running water, prompting residents to file a lawsuit demanding that services be restored. Scottsdale argues that it bears no responsibility for Rio Verde. In a statement published on 16 January, the city of Scottsdale said that it had for years "warned and advised" Rio Verde - which is governed by nearby Maricopa County - that it could not depend on the city's water supply, particularly during periods of drought.
