Flood Risk
Gympie is situated on the Mary River and has experienced significant flooding in recent decades, including major events in 2013 and 2022. The town is mapped within State flood study overlays for the Mary River catchment, with substantial portions of the CBD and surrounding residential areas affected by the 1% AEP flood extent. Properties in Gympie face considerable flood risk and are subject to strict Queensland planning controls and building requirements.
Planning Controls
- •Mandatory flood-level certification and floor-level controls above the Designated Flood Level (DFL)
- •Restrictions on development within the 1% AEP flood zone without appropriate mitigation
- •Requirement for flood-compatible construction and materials in flood-affected areas
- •Development assessment against Queensland's Planning Regulation flood-related codes and local planning scheme
Bushfire Risk
BAL Rating
BAL-19
Gympie is located in south-east Queensland on the Mary River floodplain with surrounding hilly terrain and native bushland. Properties in fringe-rural and elevated areas around Gympie are typically mapped within Queensland's Bushfire Prone Area mapping and attract BAL-19 construction standards due to proximity to moderate-density vegetation and topographic features that can channel fire. Inner Gympie town properties carry lower risk, but most suburban and rural holdings should be assessed individually against current SPP/SP3 mapping.
