Uneven land. In my opinion, more building would affect bodies of water making them more shallow to flood, or allowing them to be emptied out. This is a reason why most lakes, are normally set a little far aways from cultural city life. You might want to google it, this is just my opinion. But, I believe this is the reason, why rivers flood, is because they are too close to city land/buildings.
