Flood Risk
Mallacoota is a coastal town in far-eastern Victoria with high flood risk due to its low elevation, proximity to the Genoa River estuary, and exposure to coastal inundation during severe weather events and king tides. The Land Subject to Inundation Overlay (LSIO) covers substantial portions of the township. Historical flooding (notably during the 2016 East Gippsland floods) and the town's geography as a narrow coastal inlet make flood resilience a critical planning consideration.
Planning Controls
- •LSIO applies to areas susceptible to flooding from river/coastal sources; development must meet flood-resilience standards
- •Mandatory flood-risk assessment and mitigation measures for new buildings and extensions
- •Floor levels typically required to be set above the probable maximum flood level or 1% AEP plus freeboard
- •Consideration of cumulative flood risk from both inland waterways (Genoa River) and coastal storm surge/king tides
Bushfire Risk
BAL Rating
BAL-FZ
Mallacoota is a high-risk coastal locality in far East Gippsland, Victoria, situated within heavily vegetated terrain adjacent to Croajingolong National Park. The area is classified under Victoria's Bushfire Management Overlay (BMO) and Bushfire Prone Area (BPA) mapping as extreme risk due to surrounding native forest, rugged topography, and limited evacuation routes. Properties in Mallacoota typically fall within BAL-FZ (Flame Zone) and require the highest level of bushfire-resistant construction under AS 3959-2018.

Future Development
Mallacoota is a remote coastal township in far East Gippsland with minimal development activity, primarily focused on post-bushfire recovery, infrastructure resilience, and tourism facility upgrades rather than speculative residential expansion. Development is constrained by limited service capacity, environmental protections, and the area's rural-coastal character. Council priorities centre on sustainable local recovery and visitor economy support rather than major growth precincts.
