Okay, I'll bite. So the proposition is to truck water 364 miles (from the next largest city center I could find, San Diego). I think you might be suggesting a pipeline, but let's be real, there won't be water in Scottsdale in 5 years (and a pipeline won't be done anytime before that). People already find water brought in from _Phoenix_ which is _13_ miles away to be too expensive.

So what exactly is the solution?

Too expensive for what? Too expensive is a continuum.
