Integrated infrastructure : a neighborshed approach to stormwater management

University of British Columbia

This thesis describes an integrated approach to infrastructure planning, watershed management and neighborhood livability for an urban basin in Portland, Oregon. After an examination of existing integrated approaches used in Oregon and British Columbia, this project outlines a framework for the analysis and planning of green infrastructure in the Oak Basin. After analyzing the conditions of the three systems that affect and are affected by green infrastructure (infrastructure - watershed - neighborhood), a green infrastructure plan was developed to meet systems needs. Additionally, site level designs reflect green infrastructure plan goals and targets as well as illustrating how these spaces can contribute to neighborhood livability.
