Picking option one, siding with the farmers, causes crime to increase by a ~4%. Water rationing is annoying, but it doesn't cause crime jumps.
It caused a raise from 16.22 → 16.78 in Crimes Per Hour or 3.5% for you personally. Overall negligible.
If you tell people, 'Hey, stop watering your lawns or else' at least a few people are going to say 'Or else what?' and keep doing it. That accounts for the minor crime bump.
The vast majority of my issues seem to have effects of 4% or less, except for the crazy ones which involve banning cars.
