Municipal environmental master plans

Municipal environmental planning often ends in a document with no budget behind it. We approach it as a programme of works with priorities, costs and a timetable, so it can be delivered term by term.

What's included

• Environmental assessment of the municipality with mapping and baseline indicators.
• Green infrastructure and ecological connectivity plan.
• Water cycle analysis: supply, sanitation, stormwater and reuse.
• Environmental education and awareness programmes with a defined target audience.
• Prioritised programme of works, with estimated costs and funding sources.
• Monitoring indicator system for the council's technical departments.

When you need it

• You want to order environmental works rather than dealing with them as emergencies arise.
• You have to align environmental planning with the urban plan in force.
• You need to justify measures in funding applications.
• Your technical staff do not have the capacity to carry out the full assessment.

How we work

A single team covers water, urban green space and environmental education, which avoids three plans that never speak to each other. The programme of works comes out prioritised and costed, not as a list of good intentions.
