Overview

Council finalised a flood study model of the Baffle Creek catchment in 2018. In order to fully utilise the outputs of the modelling for mapping, flood forecasting, emergency planning and other planning activities, Council would like to hear from the community.

Community engagement will assist in “ground truthing” the flood mapping and Council to better understand how flooding impacts on the community.

Community Engagement

These alternatives may include property modification, response modification and flood behaviour modification.
