What is the Land Subject to Inundation Overlay (LSIO)?
A Land Subject to Inundation Overlay (LSIO) is a type of planning control that identifies properties that may be affected by flood risk.
An LSIO is designed to prompt the early consideration of flood risks in the planning process and provide guidance and standards on how these sites should respond to that flood risk.
Parts of Arden are subject to flooding and are covered by an LSIO. The City of Melbourne is proposing to amend the area covered by the LSIO in Arden and other areas to reflect updated flood modelling. This is being done through Amendment c384 to the Melbourne Planning Scheme.
