> Is residential water use really the problem?

Having no residential water restriction certainly doesn't help voters understand that water availability is a problem.

...okay... but you're wasting that political oomph on a measure that is clearly not going to be effective.

People have limited ceilings for these types of things. Of anything you need to have at least equal measure measure, but preferably greater measure of industrial controls on scarce resource consumption.
