Unfortunate probably cheaper to reroute the lake.

On the contrary.

We've been moving cities and municipalities since the dawn of civilization. That's just how life worked.

Yes water works continue to improve but the age old solution is simply to stop city growth at its sustainable level and start moving people to other, newer, better areas to live.

Alternatively, you can boom bust with feast and famine economics and have tons of people die due to poor planning. That's also part of the age old deal and it's evidence is written in the many mismanaged cities across history.
