Dawg this proposed city is literally 10 miles from the Sacramento river. The engineering schemes involved to supply it with water are trivial.

Now, is there enough water in the Sacramento to supply a new city, all of those already extant, and the Central Valley's intensive agricultural demands? that's a valid question, but it's not the one that was raised by OP here. OP was appealing to the importance of a city being IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT to a body of water. He didn't even cite it for purposes of drinking water, industrial applications etc, he cited it for purposes of recreation.

The reason OP cited this, I'm virtually sure, is because he's aware of the historical fact of the matter that almost all cities were built on bodies of water, therefore figures that it must be bad city planning for one not to be today. But the reason this was the case *historically* is that, practically in all but a few edge cases, the only way to supply a city with sufficient water for economic, commercial, consumption, recreation, and waste disposal purposes is to be immediately adjacent to a large body of water. A distance of 10 miles for an historical city to a large body of water could be a death knell, but by modern techniques that distances is downright negligible.

It's still entirely possible that this city may be bad from a water security standpoint, but that's immaterial to what OP's point actually was, and if you moved it 10 miles over to the banks of the Sacramento itself it would make virtually 0 difference.
