Flood Risk
Goon is a small rural locality in central Victoria with low-to-moderate flood risk. While not located on a major flood-prone river catchment comparable to the Yarra or Murrumbidgee, typical VIC LSIO overlays may apply to land adjacent to creeks or drainage lines. Most elevated land in the locality is likely outside flood-prone areas, but local waterway management and drainage patterns should be confirmed via council planning scheme mapping.
Planning Controls
- •Compliance with VIC planning scheme LSIO requirements for floor levels and building design in mapped zones
- •Referral to relevant floodplain management authority for any works within flood-prone land
- •Consideration of local drainage and overland flow paths in subdivision and development proposals
- •Potential requirement for flood impact assessments if property adjoins identified waterway or drainage line
