Flood Risk
Buckland Park is a semi-rural locality in the Adelaide Hills region of South Australia with no major river systems or known flood-prone catchments affecting it. While local stormwater drainage and minor creek systems exist, there are no established flood study overlays (equivalent to QLD/NSW/VIC state overlays) mapped for this area. Risk remains low provided standard stormwater management and local drainage maintenance are observed.
Planning Controls
- •SA Planning and Design Code (PDC) flood and stormwater management provisions
- •Local catchment management and stormwater drainage requirements via Adelaide Hills Council
- •Consideration of historical minor flooding from local drainage systems and sheet flow
- •Standard building setback and floor level requirements for regional areas
