'Dear Melbourne Water, give me back my
money'
‘It’s out with the old and in with the new’

The purpose of this frameworkA framework for the urban water sector that synthesises existing approaches and builds resilience
Outlines new/emergent planning paradigms
Provides a basis to demonstrate best practice
Allows for the organisation of tools and approaches
Supports industry benchmarking
Supports utility continuous improvement We need to improve the transparency of
planning to build trust and maintain the social
licence to operate
Agree on a long-term planning strategy with clear augmentation options to maintain level of service objectives.
Discuss the willingness to pay for this augmentation with the community or accept a lower level of service
Investigate augmentation options and apply triple bottom line assessment to determine best options
Undertake sensitivity analyses to determine likely range of time to augmentation
Determine time to augmentation

Influencing the strategic environment
Change is happening faster and requires a nimble response
• Monitor and adapt to changes in the strategic environment
• Support decision makers with data and knowledge
• Be more active in public policy formulation
• Establish and maintain a dialogue with customers and communities on the role of water in society
Broadening the vision
LiveabilityA liveable city, town or region, adopts sustainability as a foundation and also explicitly addresses the values and preferences of its communities for amenity, well being and a sense of place
Plan, implement, adapt and review
Headline elements of planning cycle remain in place…..
But we engage with communities and
stakeholders,
and
we integrate our planning with land use planning
to build resilient water services through a matrix of options at a variety of
scales to create an urban water system
The six steps of planning,
implementing, adapting and
reviewing
