Our draft Integrated Water Management (IWM) Strategy guides how we can contribute to maintaining our liveability, improve waterway health and support community wellbeing, now and into the future.
This draft strategy will guide the management of all sources of water over the next 10 years. It will also address emerging challenges such as population growth, climate change and increasing flood and drought risk.
Manningham Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante, reinforced the importance of a collaborative approach to water management in Manningham.
"Water is a limited resource, and we all have a role to play in ensuring we continue to use water wisely now and into the future," Cr Diamante said.
"It's important we work together to get this right, particularly as we face challenges like a growing population and the increasing flood and drought risks that come with a changing climate.
"This strategy will help us keep our parks and recreational facilities green and contribute to the health of our community and waterways," Cr Diamante said.
