The City Team was first established within the City Environment Agency  but was then transferred to the Development and Planning Agency  . This corresponded to a shift in framing of climate change from an environmental priority to encompassing broader development issues such as economic development, housing and infrastructure delivery. By asserting that climate change affects the operations of every critical sector across the city, the number of municipal agencies involved in climate change programming increased significantly . Most notably, this approach helped the municipal health agency to recognise the relationship between climate change and health , and helped to shift the emphasis of dengue fever management toward a more proactive community-based health early warning system . In 2017, these measures helped to reduced dengue fever infection rates by 56% compared with 2011-2016 levels . ACCCRN also supported policy experimentation through implementing rainwater harvesting facilities and a community-based flood early warning system . These projects were designed in conjunction with national government investments in flood management infrastructure, which led to a reduction in the city's inundated area by 24% or approximately 1% of the total urban area .
