Doesn't California City have something to do with Los Angeles's water infrastructure history?

I didn't know about California City, but the parent post also makes me think of the classic movie Chinatown, inspired by the California Water Wars.

On the same topic, another inspiration for fiction is the book Cadillac Desert by Marc Reisner:

Great book.
