"Currently no other published document outlines so clearly how land use planners and water managers can come together in practicum to better coordinate."
- Danielle Gallet, Founding Principal + Water Strategist, Waterwell, LLC
Land without water cannot support urban form of any scale, yet many land use decisions are made without regard to water, and vice versa. This report introduces readers to best management practices that enable local governments and water providers to integrate the two systems. Supported by case studies from several U.S. communities, the report demonstrates that planning is a crucial step for land and water integration.
"Integrating Land Use and Water Management is relevant, informative, and necessary at this moment in time. In the age of specialization, we have created many silos. As problems with the urban water cycle become more complex and multidimensional, collaboration with other disciplinary experts is needed. This report provides a practical bridge to facilitate collaboration between land use planners and water management."
