Birds Gully and Bunnerong Road Floodplain Risk Management
Feedback and EOI's for the Floodplain Committee have now closed.
The draft Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan (FRMSP) will be reported to Council late 2023, seeking endorsement to put the FRMSP on exhibition for community feedback.
Council is developing a Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan (FRMSP) for the Birds Gully and Bunnerong Road catchment.
The draft FRMSP is expected to go on public exhibition in early 2024. In the meantime, Council is seeking community input to identify new incidents of flooding in the catchment, not previously reported to Council.
In addition, we are seeking expressions of interest from community members interested in joining the Birds Gully and Bunnerong Road Floodplain Management Committee.
Property owners and residents are invited to nominate to be one of three community representatives on the committee. Nominees need to demonstrate their suitability for this role and how they meet the selection criteria. The first meeting of the committee will be held on Wednesday 8 November 2023.
Have your say:
- Check you live in the catchment
- Complete an expression of interest to join the Floodplain Management Committee
- Share new incidents of flooding in the catchment
- Read the latest newsletter
- Send your comments headed "Birds Gully Floodplain Management" to council@randwick.nsw.gov.au or to 30 Frances Street, Randwick 2031.
Feeback and EOI's close 29 October 2023.
