Flood Risk
Clarkson, located in Perth's northern suburbs, sits in a relatively elevated coastal area with low to moderate flood risk. The suburb is not subject to major river flood overlays but may experience localised stormwater flooding during significant rainfall events due to flat terrain and Perth's winter rainfall patterns. Standard WA flood risk management practices apply, with site-specific assessment recommended near drainage corridors.
Planning Controls
- •Development compliance with WA Planning Commission's Flood Risk Management Guidelines
- •Site-specific flood risk assessment required for properties within 100m of drainage lines or wetlands
- •Consideration of Perth metropolitan drainage network and potential localised stormwater inundation
- •Ground level assessment relative to Indian Ocean drainage and winter rainfall vulnerability
