By engaging with the planning process the WMA Member Boards are seeking to:
- Reduce flood risk to communities within its Internal Drainage District and highland catchment.
- Promote sustainable development in sustainable locations by supporting sound planning decisions that can be implemented by applicants and developers.
- Reduce the potential for conflict between the planning process and the IDB regulatory process.
- Develop an understanding within other authorities and third parties of the flood risk and capacity issues within IDB areas so they can be considered through the planning process.
- Make a contribution towards the achievement of Sustainable Development, as per Section 27 of the Flood and Water Management Act 2010.
