However, what the snowmelt does is what is critical. For example, here in the Southwest, we have the Colorado River. It is fed primarily from snowmelt from the Colorado Rockies. It does not run through Denver (where I went to high school). Denver, when I was there, had water restrictions based on your address (even vs odd number). You couldn't wash your car, or windows, or water your lawn on certain days.

...which is why one constructs reservoirs and aqueducts, kind of like how the Romans figured out ~2,000 years ago.

There's over 9M people in Tehran. Not really practical to relocate them.

They're more likely to move the seat of government and then the population figure it out. BTW Tehran is sinking at a rate of about a foot per year because they've pumped out all their groundwater and the earth is moving. I doubt many of those buildings there are able to structurally handle that kind of shifting around all that well...
