The flash flood mapping is being doing by watershed and began in 2019. This process will continue for the next 4-5 years until the entire City has been studied. The goals of these studies are to quantify inundation extents and flood risk, then prioritize solutions on a Citywide scale. The City estimates these watersheds will costs around $6,000,000. 9 of 25 studies are currently in progress.

In the past few years, Lake Forest’s businesses and residents have begun to experience flash floods and subsequently property damage due to increased precipitation. As a result, Lake Forest has provided their citizens resources on green infrastructure such as trees, native plants, bioswales, rain gardens, and green roofs, in order to absorb rainwater and reduce stormwater runoff. Additionally, Lake Forest has installed new illustrative stormwater catch basin grates in some parts of the city, and installed permeable gravel driveway in a local school. Although these actions may be few, Lake Forest is hoping to increase these projects in the future.Sources:https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Rain_Garden.pdfhttps://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Bioswales.pdfhttps://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Rain_Garden.pdfFinance securedLocalhttps://www.cityoflakeforest.com/flooding-and-stormwater-management/ https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Rain_Garden.pdf https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Bioswales.pdf https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Rain_Garden.pdf https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Rain_Barrels.pdf https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Driveways-Patios.pdf https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Rain_Barrels.pdf https://www.cityoflakeforest.com/assets/1/7/SMC_Residential_Driveways-Patios.pdf195442018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-87.8406, 42.2586]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

Namely Podgorica has been participating in projects funded by the Open Regional Fund for South-East Europe – Energy Efficiency (ORF-EE) by the German Federal Enterprise for International Cooperation (GIZ) - SUMSEEC: Sustainable Urban Mobility in South-East European Countries – SEE Cities Together towards Sustainable and Energy Efficient Transport. Under to project well be creation of a Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan. The plan will be a comprehensive strategy for organizing the transport sector so as to meet the needs of both citizens and businesses. The plan will define, among other things, measures in spatial planning, reduction of negative impacts on the environment, solutions for public transport, cycling and walking. A particularly important segment is public transport.It is mean that renewal of the old fleet with new buses; reorganization of bus routes in terms of better coverage; modern bus stops; higher frequency timetable. Benefits: more efficient public transport. Relevant location(s) in Podgorica: Podgorica, Urban Municipalities of Golubovci, suburbs. Additional benefits: Less need for parking spaces, less traffic load, reducing the transmission of polluting particles in the air, more efficient fuel consumption. Measure complexity: Implementation in stages. Negative external effects: Long-term measure. Competent authority / organization: Management of the Capital City Podgorica.The implemented activities so far:We have established a working group of representatives of various bodies from the city level, the ministries and NGOs.We held a three-day workshop on the process of developing the Mobility Plan and about experience of other cities. The local expert was engaged by GIZ.We addressed different institutions in order to obtain data and information which will be used for analyzing the situation.Within the working group we have named individuals who will be responsible for certain thematic areas like spatial characteristics; cycling / walking; public transport / security; institutional framework / laws / strategies; Traffic at rest/ parking.We devised activities to get to the missing data:- We organized volunteers - students to count cars on the locations which so-called “hot spots”- We have preparing a questionnaire/survey we was placed on the web site of the cityAlso we had a workshop with a broader working group. There were more than 40 participants from various institutions, non-governmental sector, business sector and etc. and we talked about what kind of city we want and we worked together on the vision of the Plan. Our vision is: PODGORICA IS A MODERN CITY WITH THE FOCUS HAS ON PEOPLE AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF ALL CITIZENS.

The aim of this activity is to ensure that the sanatoriums at schools have readily available supplies on site/ quick access to medication that can prevent illnesses in children and students. This is especially important among the poorer communities who may not necessarily have the funds to procure medication if needed. This activity is currently being undertaken in the wealthier schools located in the more central regions of the city, however schools located in the outskirts of the city have less access to resources. This activity needs to be standardised to ensure that all schools have similar capacity to support their students.2247952019{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[40.6854, -14.5656]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

Water supply planning is important to the City of Houston in order to meet long term growth in demand and to comply with 30 TAC Chapter 288 that requires the City to prepare and implement a water conservation plan that meets certain requirements. This plan includes information to fulfill these requirements in addition to information specific to the City of Houston’s water supply and treatment systems. The current plan includes measures to be taken internally at the City of Houston as well as programs for water customers. These include current programs such as an in-house public education program, continued enforcement of water-wise building and plumbing codes and the Consumption Awareness Program designed to allow water customers to determine the most effective methods to maximize water-use efficiency inside and outside the home through communicating real-time meter data to household users. This document also summarizes plans to develop an internal Water Loss Program, pilot a Mainline Leak Detection Program and expand the Consumption Awareness Program.https://edocs.publicworks.houstontx.gov/documents/divisions/utilities/coh_water_conservation_plan_2014.pdf23255022018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-95.3694, 29.7602]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

Buildings, technologies, and practices that use natural or artificial systems (green roofs, permeable flooring, rain gardens; etc.) will be fundamentally important for rain water management, and reducing air pollutants and mitigating the effects of urban heat islands. Green roofs will also be constructed, as part of an extensive energy redevelopment project for schools. In the same way, starting with schools and public structures that have adequate space, phyto-treatment or fish farming basins may be introduced, in order to reduce the heat island effect, recover greywater and slow down rainwater run-offs.28766142017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[12.2858, 41.53]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143
