Standard VIC planning scheme overlays and flood-aware development practices apply.
Planning Controls
- •Compliance with VIC planning scheme LSIO requirements for floor levels and building design
- •Flood risk assessment and mitigation measures for new development in mapped inundation areas
- •Consideration of Loddon River and local tributary flood behaviour in site planning
- •Mandatory consultation with floodplain management authority for vulnerable land uses
