It is illegal to water your lawn while seated.

Status: Historical / Repealed

The Law Explained

In York, an old municipal code forbids residents from taking a seat while they are actively watering their lawns with a hose. This unusual restriction was meant to discourage water waste, based on the assumption that a seated person might become too relaxed, forget about the running water, and flood the street. You must remain standing and attentive to keep your grass green.
