<strong>Climate</strong> <strong>variability</strong>, <strong>climate</strong> <strong>change</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>water</strong> <strong>resource</strong> <strong>strategies</strong> <strong>for</strong> small municipalities<br />
to drought conditions. The lack of capacity at local government level results in a dependency on<br />
consultants <strong>for</strong> the planning skills. Recently, however, there have been moves towards <strong>resource</strong><br />
management as part of <strong>water</strong> service delivery, where, <strong>for</strong> example, the Kgalagadi DMA have<br />
developed a drought relief strategy whereby they plan to do proactive <strong>resource</strong> management (Bigen<br />
Africa 2004).<br />
Specific details of the selected municipal areas have been included in Appendix C.<br />
