In phase 2, comprehensively evaluated potential analyses are now required to prepare the investment plans for the BlueGreen upgrading of existing neighbourhoods. In addition to the evaluation of public properties and an assessment of the functionalities of realised infrastructures, the preparation of a Leipzig action plan for the future use of BlueGreen investment projects is of high importance for the project applied for. Continuity beyond the project duration is ensured through the support of a cross-agency steering network for "water-sensitive urban development". Here, administrative and approval processes for BlueGreen Urban Development are evaluated, prioritised and implementation prepared. The necessary organisational and legal framework conditions are developed in the second project phase, evaluated and introduced as recommendations to the political decision-making level, e.g. as a city council bill.
