People have been telling Reno city officials for decades that the unmitigated growth here would drain our very limited water supplies. There's only so much water that can legally be removed from the Truckee River and the groundwater is replenished only by the river and whatever moisture we get here in the rainshadow of the Sierra Nevadas during the winter and spring. Lo and behold, we're suddenly and unexpectedly seeing water problems for the past few years. Who'da thunk it?

yeah but you had good snow last winter. I heard that Reno is doing good on water (for now).

Nein. While it was an exceptionally wet winter for us here in northern Nevada, it still wasn't enough to reverse years of below-average moisture. Lake Tahoe is still considerably below its 6,225 ft average elevation as are other area reservoirs and lakes, but I'm having difficulty finding a source quoting the current elevations. And you're right, "for now" is the typical assessment Reno city officials come to each time we have a wet winter. It happened after the New Year's Flood of '97, then summer rolled around and all that moisture still didn't break us from drought, just lessened it a little. More area developement is approved and the cycle continues.
I'll tell you what, though, all that moisture is going to make a lot of fresh growth ... that'll turn into dry kindling in the fall. Fire season this year or next is going to be a *****...
The cake is NOT a lie. It's so delicious and moist.
The Weighted Companion Cube is cheating on you, that slut.
Plant tropical plants , and water them like mad ( also provide them with small amounts of fertiliser and very large quantities of manure ) . Soon you'll have a patch of lush , vibrant greenery . DO NOT turn it into a soulless lawn .
Plant some citrus trees, then you get fruit and shade.

citris trees aren't easy to grow in the desert, even with water.
but we can support most other kinds of trees.
most people in Las Vegas have a lawn, even though we are running out of water. Not very many people are willing to give them up. I guess they'd rather face water restrictions than give up their lawn. I hate people.
But that might not be necessary, as our water district now has a plan to steal water from the northern (and central) half of the state similar to what Los Angeles did last century.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
