Local Government

Water Studio works with Victorian councils on capital works, drainage assets and the stormwater assessments that sit behind planning decisions.

Capital works

Design and delivery of council drainage and streetscape projects, from wetlands and retarding basins through to passive irrigation retrofitted into existing streets.

Asset review and compliance

Reviewing existing stormwater assets, assessing sediment basins and wetlands against how they were meant to perform, and advising on practical drainage compliance for development applications.

Building your team’s capability

Training programs designed for council engineers and landscape architects, covering wetland design and maintenance, sediment basin assessment and stormwater asset review. Several Victorian councils have used these to bring newer staff up to speed on assets they have inherited.

Recent council clients include the Shire of Yarra Ranges, Whitehorse City Council and the City of Darebin.
