How to make my tap water colder?
I’ve noticed that my tap water tends to get quite warm, and when I run the cold water, it only reaches a lukewarm temperature at best. This becomes particularly inconvenient when I want a glass of cold water, as I often have to add ice, which can be frustrating—especially since the ice trays aren't always filled by others. Is there a way to adjust something in my plumbing or the water system to ensure that my tap water comes out colder?

Sorry, tap water comes straight from the city’s lines. Hot water goes through a hot water heater, but the cold lines are not really cold, just unheated.
Pour some tap water into a pitcher. Place the pitcher in the refrigerator. In a few hours you’ll have cold water. At night replenish the pitcher so you will have cold water the next day.
I am not aware of cold water that goes anywhere other then from the ground to the tap. Follow your pipes, see if there was some mistake when the house was first plumbed.
