Built Aspects Service aspects

• Stormwater,
• WSUD
• Drinking Water
• Sewerage
• Alternative water

Integrated agency approach

Natural Aspects

• Natural drainage
• waterways, wetlands,

floodplains

Aspects

• Residential, commercial and

industrial; land use

• Roads & streetscapes
• Public Open Space

• Drought, population growth,

changing community attitudes – New emphasis on the role and value of water in urban form

• Shift away from centralised water

Melbourne’s Water Future

• Shift away from centralised water

cycle services

• Solutions tailored to local context,
• esp. using local water , WSUD
• Retrofits in old suburbs
• WWCM in design in new suburbs

• New developments offer best opportunity

for better liveability

• Water cycle aspects can be designed to

enhance liveability – Recreational links – Water in the landscape

WWCM and new developments

5

– Water in the landscape – Nature in suburbia – Green open space, canopy cover – Stormwater detention, treatment, reuse

• Need to design new suburbs with

‘water in mind’

• Water cycle aspects are just one matter
• Developers/consultants make many

decisions

Development planning

decisions

– What options; who to consult; what rules apply

Challenges for water/urban planning

Lack of understanding of IWCM by developers Lack of clarity for IWCM in policy &regulations Council resistance due to unknown O&M

7

&regulations Conflicting views and lack of coordinated decision making IWCM solutions not one-size-fits all unknown O&M cost implications

• Online one-stop shop

for developers, consultants and planners

• IWCM in planning &

Urban Water Cycle Planning Guide

• IWCM in planning &

design of greenfield developments

• Precinct scale

The WWCM ‘Flowpath’

• 1. Waterways and floodplains
• 2. Major Drainage
• 3. Land Use, Roads, Public Open Space

Built Aspects (3&4) Service aspects (5,6 &7)

9

• 4. Water Sensitive Urban Design
• 5. Drinking Water Servicing
• 6. Sewerage Servicing
• 7. Alternative, fit-for- purpose water

Natural Aspects (1 &2) (3&4)

Concept Functional Detailed

3 Modules (Stages)

• High level
• Ideas
• Consultation
• More detail
• Options
• Agreement
• Final design
• Decisions
• Approval

• Early consultation –

avoids wasting time and money on ‘dud’ options

• Aligned with planning

Benefits

Aligned with planning approvals process

• Agreed format by

agencies
