A property-specific flood overlay and planning controls check is recommended for any development or risk assessment.
Planning Controls
- •Compliance with VIC Building Regulations regarding floor levels in LSIO areas
- •Referral to Gippsland Water for drainage and flooding assessments
- •Consideration of local catchment flood mapping and overland flow paths
- •Flood-compatible development standards if LSIO applies to specific properties
