Remember, Huntington Beach also refused to move forward with the desalination plant at a time of (extremely rare) budget surplus [0].
I hope this is taken into consideration, because conservation alone won't solve this problem: it plays a vital role, but it doesn't make water magically appear.

You are talking about getting a tiny tiny fraction of water from the giant body of water right next to us instead of a significant fraction of small lakes and rivers many miles away.
