LESSON LEARNED - CHANGING POLICY
To build truly resilient and climate-adapted communities using
green infrastructure, local government staff need to be able to
create a supportive policy environment for green infrastructure.
Getting there means many different things: making sure staff have a
thorough understanding of green infrastructure types, applications,
costs, and benefits; providing best practices, policy success stories,
case studies, and project examples; and most importantly, convening
the wide array of multidisciplinary professionals (from engineering
and environment to parks and planning) whose practice green
infrastructure cuts across.
"The design charrette was particularly useful in providing a real-life
case study to work through - bringing together professionals from a
variety of backgrounds with the developer and consultant team - to
identify green solutions for a particular site", said Kristina Hausmanis, Project Manager, Green Streets, at the City of Toronto. "Any
time we have the ability to bring together a diversity of professions
and expertise problems are solved faster and there is more natural
collaboration that takes place."
Green infrastructure, as the charrettes in six communities
demonstrate, holds tremendous potential to help communities
adapt to climate change, improve public health and well-being, all
while helping us transition to the new low-carbon economy. Post
COVID-19 recovery plans should include green infrastructure
investments to help us address our next great crisis - climate change.
