Sidney Lowe - Watered Down

Two weeks after the start of Raleigh's lawn irrigation restrictions, inspectors are continuing to cite unexpectedly large numbers of residents, many of them in four large residential developments.

More people were caught Monday for breaking the alternate-day rules than on the first day of the water restrictions, July 2. On that first day, enforcement officers issued warning notices to 31 offenders. Monday, they cited 33.

Among those breaking the rules was Sidney Lowe, N.C. State University basketball coach. A citation was issued Saturday for improper watering at the 9,500-square-foot house he and his wife own on a half-acre lot in Brier Creek. A spokeswoman for the NCSU basketball team said Lowe would have no comment.
