Flood Risk
Meadow Springs (southeast of Perth, in Mandurah area) is situated on elevated terrain with limited major watercourse exposure. While the region has minor creek systems and potential surface-water ponding in low areas during extreme rainfall, there are no major flood-designated overlays comparable to eastern Australian systems. Low flood risk is typical for this locality, though local drainage and stormwater design remain standard planning considerations.
Planning Controls
- •WA Planning Commission Guideline 3.4 on planning for riverine and coastal flooding
- •Consideration of Design Flood Event (DFE) and Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) in development proposals near watercourses
- •Local authority requirements for site-specific flood risk assessment where development is near identified waterways
- •Freeboard and finished floor level requirements for residential development in flood-prone areas
