Water Collection!

In JBaylo's Blog he/she writes about water and water collection. That tells us how we can use water collection equipment to help save water and money during times of drought and any other.
A lot of this is new to me since im not familiar with many programs that the city has. Water collection equipment can be used to one save money, two save water, and three Austin can give you a rebate of 50 cents per every gallon of  unpressurized and $1.00 for every Gallon of pressururized water storage, up to 5,000 which is pretty good. this will make people make want to save money and not feel guilty for using more water. mostly in a time of drought like these. I also found it interesting that there is no sales tax on these equipment and that HOA's cannot ban such things from homes.
I really liked reading about this it makes me feel good that the city cares for its water and actually has things to help motivate people to use collectors just as they do with solar panels.Now im going to be on the look out for a good water collector that will catch water off my gutters, just as soon as we get some good amounts of rain in Texas.

Thanks!
