Lurline Bay, Matraville, Malabar & Yarra Bay Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan
This consultation has concluded.
Randwick City Council has begun work to further our understanding of flooding in the Lurline Bay, Matraville, Malabar, and Yarra Bay Catchment.
In March 2024, the Lurline Bay, Matraville, Malabar, and Yarra Bay Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan (FRMSP) commenced. The goal of this project is to further refine our understanding of flooding in the catchment, evaluate the risk that flooding poses to the community, and develop strategies that may assist with mitigating the impact of flooding.
This project follows on from the Lurline Bay, Matraville, Malabar and Yarra Bay Flood Study completed and adopted by Council in October 2021.
Our consultants are currently gathering information and data on flooding throughout the catchment area to revise and validate the existing flood model.
If you have been affected by flooding, we would greatly appreciate it if you could share detailed accounts and any related material, such as photos and videos. This will help us gain a better understanding of the flooding events.
Your experiences will contribute to the updated computer model of flooding in the catchment. This model will provide the technical foundation for assessing the effectiveness and feasibility of various flood mitigation measures proposed throughout the process of this FRMSP.
Letters have been mailed to all residents within the study area requesting information related to flooding. If you have been affected by flooding, please share detailed accounts and any related material to help us gain a better understanding of the events.
