Flood Risk
Cooroy is located within the Mary River catchment in the Noosa Shire, Queensland, and falls within areas subject to regional flood mapping. The Mary River has a documented history of flooding, and portions of Cooroy are mapped within flood-affected zones under Queensland's planning framework. Properties in this locality are likely to have flood-related development conditions or constraints depending on their specific location relative to the river and defined flood extents.
Planning Controls
- •Compliance with Queensland Development Code (QDC) Table 1 (Planning for Flood Risk) for properties in defined flood mapping areas
- •Finished floor level requirements typically set above the probable maximum flood (PMF) or 1% AEP plus freeboard
- •Development assessment against the Mary River regional flood study (Noosa Shire Council)
- •Consideration of overland flow paths and local drainage constraints in development applications

Heritage & Conservation
Cooroy is a rural hinterland locality in the Noosa Shire with modest heritage significance, primarily comprising early 20th-century community buildings and rural infrastructure. The area lacks a formal heritage conservation overlay or widespread state heritage listings, reflecting its small-town character and primarily agricultural history. Individual properties are unlikely to be subject to heritage restrictions unless they contain structures of demonstrable cultural or architectural significance to the local community.
