The Rainbow Drive Story
The Rainbow Drive residential layout in Bengaluru, India faced water scarcity, flooding, and dysfunctional sewage treatment issues when initially developed. Over a decade, through tireless efforts, the Plot Owners Association implemented various water management reforms. These included banning private borewells, installing water meters and instituting water tariffs, educating residents, implementing rainwater harvesting and groundwater recharging, and improving sewage treatment. As a result, the layout became self-sufficient in water, recharging more groundwater annually than it withdraws. The story demonstrates how engaged community efforts can achieve sustainable urban water management.

Policy Tools to Achieve Urban Water Security
TRADITIONALLY, URBAN WATER managers, faced with increasing demand for water alongside varying levels of supplies, have relied on largescale, supply-side infrastructural
projects, such as dams and reservoirs, to meet increased demands for water. This supply-side approach, however, is under increasing pressure from climate change, rapid population and economic growth and even land-use changes impacting the availability of good quality water of sufficient quantities. To enhance urban water security, water managers are turning towards demand-side management.

This document provides an evaluation of Alternative A, which would mandate downspout disconnection within Milwaukee city limits and implement income-based stormwater management fees. Key points:
- Property owners with incomes at or below the poverty level would get free disconnections, while higher-income owners would pay $10-80 over 4 years to disconnect their own downspouts.
- All property owners would pay an annual stormwater management fee of $1.50-6 depending on income to fund the program.
- The city costs to provide supplies and pay a crew to disconnect downspouts for low-income residents would be up to $2.77 million over 4 years, funded by the annual fees.

Invisible to Invaluable: Harriet Festing Presentation
Harriet Festing presented at the One Water Leadership Summit 2013 on behalf of the Center for Neighborhood Technology (CNT). CNT is a national nonprofit focused on urban sustainability through research, tools, and policy advocacy. Their water program conducts research on issues like urban flooding and water loss in the Great Lakes region. Survey results showed municipalities face problems like frequent flooding complaints, aging infrastructure, and high water loss without clear goals. Festing argued for building policy cases around these issues by highlighting costs to homeowners, rising water rates, and jobs from infrastructure investment. The key lessons were that solutions exist but need promotion, the costs of inaction are high, and the public already supports change, so coalitions must be built.
Sustainable Water Management: Kathy Freas
This document discusses how systems thinking approaches can enhance water sustainability in the face of climate change. It provides two examples: 1) New York City conducted a study analyzing the impacts of climate change and population growth on its sewer and wastewater systems, which resulted in a city-wide adaptation plan. 2) A study of the Colorado River Basin assessed current and future water supply and demand under climate change scenarios to identify options to reduce gaps and ensure long-term sustainable resources for the region. Systems approaches allow stakeholders to identify interconnections within water systems and develop integrated solutions to enhance resilience and sustainability.
