Local planning: Restoring the water environment in urban areas has very important links with local planning and with flood risk management. Local authorities can use land use planning processes to deliver improvements to urban rivers and lakes. Strategic development plans and local development plans are produced by planning authorities with input from a wide range of stakeholders. They can identify aspirations and assist delivery of restoration, and offer an important opportunity for interested parties to become involved in the decision making process. In this context, the planning process and financing of restoration measures in urban areas requires strong collaboration of water and city development authorities, authorities responsible for urban and spatial planning and local residents.
