The Shire has prepared Draft Local Planning Policy #7 to provide guidance for how stormwater runoff is managed on properties within townsites.
The aim of the policy is to ensure new development manages stormwater runoff from regular rainfall events.
The policy establishes an acceptable development standard for retaining water runoff on-site (1m3 per 100m2 of roofed area).
Please refer to the following documents for further information:
Draft Local Planning Policy No. 7 – Stormwater Management
