Our community is holding a special election next month to fill a vacated council seat. There's something, well, not quite right about seeing a sign supporting a candidate whose slogan is "For a Greener [community]" smack in the middle of one of the dying brown lawns that are the all-too-common signs of support (whether driven by personal factors or financial impact) for water conservation in an area that is just starting to recover from four years of historically unprecedented drought.
