Catchment Scenarios

A Catchment Scenario is a group of one or more Catchments, and the creation of multiple Catchment Scenarios provides a means of analysing the Development Contributions outputs for different Catchment groupings.

Catchment is a term to describe the area of specific DC charges within a Sub-activity service area. For each Sub-activity there will be an assignment of a number of Localities to each charging catchments. This assignment will relate growth changes in the community to each Sub-activity and to each catchment within the Sub-activity. The catchment will represent an area within a Sub-activity service area where specific benefits apply.

The specific physical place where a Project (or part of a Project) will occur. The Locality does not necessarily identify who will receive the services, or who will ultimately fund the project. See Catchment for further discussion.

A Project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product or service defined by a specific set of deliverables.

A project involves the selection of specific components for maintenence or renewal activities, with a budget allocated to cover the cost of the project.

A series of Projects, combine to form a Programme.

A Sub-activity is a specific maintenance or renewal category under which Programmes and Projects can be defined e.g stormwater.

A Sub-activity comprises a set of related Programmes which collectively deliver an overall change for the business.

Once Catchment Scenarios and Catchments have been defined, Localities can be allocated to each Catchment.

A default Catchment Scenario will exist for each Sub-activity.
