Illawarra-Shoalhaven: In Development Climate Resilience
-
- Education
Water sensitive urban design considers the whole water cycle, including management of rainwater from roofs, paths and roads with the broader environment in mind.
We visit two residential developments in the Wollongong area and look at the water-sensitive urban design elements that have been or will be handed over to council to manage.
But how do councils and developers best work together to provide it effectively?
What defines great practice, what have we done well in the past, and how can we learn from our mistakes?
While some progress has been made, councils and their communities are at the start of the journey - there’s much more that needs to be done.
In this episode we hear from:
Andrew Heaven - Development Engineering Manager from Wollongong City Council
Emma Struys - WSUD Project Manager for ISJO
