Flood Risk
Upper Caboolture is located in the mid-Mary River catchment and is primarily inland and elevated relative to major riverine flood hazard zones. While the Mary River catchment has historical flood significance downstream (2013 Queensland floods), Upper Caboolture itself sits above the main inundation risk area. Localized stormwater and drainage flooding during intense rainfall remains a consideration for low-lying sites.
Planning Controls
- •Queensland Planning Scheme flood hazard assessment requirements for properties near Mary River tributaries
- •Stormwater management and on-site detention requirements under Moreton Bay Regional Council planning scheme
- •Consideration of design flood level (DFL) for any development in identified flood-prone pockets

Properties in this area typically fall within BAL-19 under Queensland's Bushfire Prone Area mapping, requiring AS 3959 construction standards. While not in a high-risk zone, proximity to bushland corridors and seasonal fire weather conditions warrant appropriate mitigation measures and building design compliance.
