Overall flood risk is low, though site-specific stormwater management is standard practice in WA planning controls.
Planning Controls
- •WA Planning Commission guidance on flood-prone areas and development near watercourses
- •Local water management and stormwater drainage requirements under Perth and Peel Region Scheme
- •Site-specific flood risk assessment may be required for properties near minor drainage lines or seasonal watercourses
