How does our plan manage flooding ?
Flooding will be managed through new drainage within the Precinct. New drainage areas have been identified in the PSP and will be implemented as part of Melbourne Water’s Development Services Scheme (DSS) for the area. The DSS will ensure that development within the PSP is protected from flooding.
An existing Land Subject to Inundation Overlay (LSIO) covering parts of the Precincts will be retained. The LSIO will ensure that flood risk is managed at the planning permit stage for new development in areas under this overlay.
The PSP also includes Integrated Water Management strategies to enhance catchment resilience and manage existing and future flood risks and impacts.
