Draft flood modelling complete

Draft flood modelling has now been completed with the help of your feedback and local knowledge. Council has started contacting landowners and will continue to do so throughout the coming months. If your land is affected by the flood study, we’ll contact you by 31 August 2026.

If you have a question about the flood study and how it might change the understanding of how water inundation might occur at your property, we will be sending letters to landholders, so please wait until you receive your letter to contact us with further questions. This will help Council’s team to manage enquiries and be able to provide detailed responses.

The draft flood modelling will be available to view on 20 July 2026.

Council continues to explore flood mitigation options at key locations across the Mansfield township. Community feedback on mitigation options will be sought when additional modelling has been undertaken.

Once community engagement has been completed, Council will seek to undertake a planning scheme amendment to implement the recommended planning controls.
