Achieving a water use target of 100l/p/d for homes is considered achievable, as is the provider of rain harvesting water butts.
While very large development may have the scale to overcome the technical issues noted above, smaller development will likely have similar issues around the need for greywater use, i.e. space, treatment and cost.
While broadly supportive, it is recommended the Council give further consideration to the technical feasibility and costs of this Policy as part of the next stage of Plan preparation to ensure any proposals are feasible and viable.
