I've read the same thing about a few places. Water rights in the desert southwest are a very contentious issue. The pie has been divided by powerful interests going back years and you can't just start collecting water from anywhere on your own. Some towns may not enforce it, but every drop of water belongs to someone, even if it just fell from the sky onto your roof. Crazy.
